Looks similar to the Jesse James play. In this play I'd have ruled a TD. Receiver has the ball and reaches for the goal line with ball still in control. There is a question of whether the receiver was not in full control of the ball but it would be difficult to see in real time. Once the ball breaks the goal line plane, anything that happens after that is during a dead ball period.

Might I add too that the pass was completed and that the receiver now becomes a runner who breaks the goal line plane with the ball still in possession. Once the runner breaks that plane, the ball is dead and a TD is scored. If anything, if the covering official ruled that runner did not have complete control of the ball as he broke the plane, then it should have been ruled a fumble and the ruling should have been touchback, team B's ball, 1st and 10 from their 20 yard line.
