I say Foul! NF 9-4-2h ...No player shall grasp an opponent’s facemask or any edge of a helmet opening

Don't we actually have a double foul here?? Or since last year the the Federation make 56 an eligible recievers number??

Well Dam Can you believe it ? Looks like I’ve been caught in my own nefarious web of intrigue! Good call CM
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!

1a). A1 is running at the A-35 when he leaps to catch a legal pass. While airborne he possesses the ball at the A-35, before he comes down he is contacted by B1 and the ball comes loose. A1, still airborne, regains control of the ball at the A-34, and contacts the ground on the A-33 where he is immediately tackled...

I agree with JMN on this one, A ball at the 33...if you do rule possesion as you state James, then we at least have a fumble and the best A could hope for is a generous interpretation that they recovered it at the 34, IMHO I don't give him possesion on the "first" opportunity to secure the ball.

I don’t know CM . I think I’m sticking with my interp on this one . At least until the rest of the gang pipes up and can convince me otherwise .
