The reciever controlled the football, came down on both toes, inbounds and it was ruled a touchdown.

Watched the video. Looks to me like his right toe touches first, then his left toe touches. As his left toe touches, or even slightly before, his right comes off the turf and then he lands OOB.

Looks to me like video confirms the call. Sorry, partner.

This is just more evidence that still photos don't prove anything.

So you agree he had both feet down but are disputing the call?

Oh no I was just telling him what the officials called it because he asked.

I think he was answering my question about what the call on the field was.

Seemed more like a description of the events to me.

Being from Ohio, I would have perferred Pittsburgh not to win.

Being an official, glad to see the call was correctly called on the field and correctly confirmed in the booth.

Have a good day now.

Still shots are inadmissible and the video angles proved to be inconclusive, so I'll go with the calling official who was in perfect position about 20' from the receiver.
