If you're going to say that his forward progress is stopped on this play, then you could also argue that a quaterback standing motionless in the pocket is also down (after all, his 'forward progress' is stopped if he's just standing there, right?).

the rule says, " held" so that his forward progress is stopped.
I know it is a judgement call but don't you think he was stopped? Would you defend that call?
There are other illegal forward passes besides GROUNDING!
