i dont think there was the perfect camera angle that provided an obvious spot. It sure looked like he was short, but htere wasnt indisputable evidence.

It wasn't a fair catch.

From the 2011 rule book -

quote:

ARTICLE 1. a. A fair catch of a scrimmage kick is a catch beyond the neutral
zone by a Team B player who has made a valid signal during a scrimmage kick
that is untouched beyond the neutral zone.

Valid Signal
ARTICLE 2. A valid signal is a signal given by a player of Team B who has
obviously signaled his intention by extending one hand only clearly above




He did not raise his hand above his head.
