Dallas vs. Seattle

OK, yes --- 99% of the time here, I'm an official. For this thread, call me fanboy if you want.

That said... did you guys see the reviewed pass to Terry Glenn around the 2 yard line? It appeared to me to be a very obvious non-catch. The ball hit his hands, was not controlled, went to the ground, where Glenn used the contact with the ground to retain control (a little - still not sure he really had it even after it hit the ground), and then immediately fumble.

While watching it, I was glad to see the play reviewed. I was not even worried about it - I knew it would be fixed. When the fix turned out to be the change of a TD to a safety (which turned out to be worse for the Boys, actually), I was shocked. I'm not sure when I crossed over from being able to rule objectively on the play, but I definitely don't feel very objective about it right now.

What say you - who saw it, and what did you think?
