Just the toes or the whole foot?

Also, if his first contact with the ground jars the ball loose, it should be ruled an incomplete pass.

Bob, I was thinking at one time I heard/read something about the toe being in and the heal coming down on the line as being incomplete, but I cannot find anything on it. Am I just in a fog, or have any others of you heard that?
