Cross the goalline?

[mikesears]

Superbowl question?

After a spirited debate about this over lunch, I thought I would ask everyones opinion.

Did Lewis cross the goalline BEFORE he lost possession of the football? After looking at the replay, I thought he made it! Barely, but the ball was still in his hand when he crossed the goalline.

Had someone argue that in the very next frame of the replay, the ball was out. Therefore, she didn't believe he had possession.

Again, I think the ruling of Touchdown was correct.
