I saw video of the catch/no catch and support the call. It was close though and could have gone either way. If you ruled the receiver had firm possession before he was hit then it was a catch (some I talked to who watched it felt that way). This was not a situation where the receiver was going to the ground as part of making the catch. If you would have ruled catch I would have supported it as well. This is one you have to see on the field and make your best judgement and I feel you did that well! Nice work.
