Brees to Jimmy TD overturned

Im not sure if this has been discussed but that TD being called back was complete bullshite. After that I started to feel like the refs had an agenda.
Correct me if I'm wrong but i thought that if you have one foot and and one heel in bounds it counts as two feet in for complete catch purposes. Also his damn knee was down before that.
I know this may sound selfish but my fantasy team lost by 9 points in the first round of the playoffs and I had Drew & Jimmy on my team.
Good thing we won besides all the other bullshite calls that went against us.
WHO DAT

No, you need both feet completely in. It was a good call. Very very close, but a good call.

Brian Hartline for the Dolphins caught an awesome pass this season near the sidelines. He caught the ball high and dragged both of this feet while falling out of bounds.
Both his set of toes were the only thing to touch the ground

I could be wrong here but I believe toes are considered in while a heel isn't.
The meaning behind this is that if your toes are in, then of course it means your heels would be as well if you had the ability to be flat footed. If your heel is in, you can lay your feet flat but your toes could be out of bounds. The opposite is not true, which was the case in the game today.
Certainly a player can have his back towards the sideline and catch the ball on the heels, but it's pretty much impossible to drag your heels without your toes being in bounds.
Toes and heels are two completely different situations.
Sorry if that makes no sense, it's late.

The toe tap is a separate ruling.
If the whole foot comes down, it has to come down in bounds.

Yeah, that's what I was getting at. You said it much simpler than I did.

Agree it was a heck of a close call but he was out.

Well correct me if I'm wrong but didn't his knee touch before his toe?

not necessarily. what if his back is towards the back of the endzone and he's facing the qb when the ball is thrown to him. only his toes touch but his heels could come down out of bounds.
ftr, it looked in to me. i didn't see this "single blade of grass" joe buck was talking about.

No it did not.
He was out of bounds. Plain and simple. Can't believe how many saints fans cant get that through their heads.

Can someone link the video? I had to listen on radio.

Looked like his knee was down and he kept his toes up with his heel inbounds, very close but I thought it was a TD.

The call may have been correct, in the end, but there is no way in hell the Ref saw that kind of detail, in real time, to call it incomplete in the first place. No way.

So your beef is that the ref luckily got the call right?
Um ok.

There was so much yellow on the field yesterday, the Jimmy call was hardly what I was pissed at.

He was not out of bounds, but I'm glad the game did not come down to that call. If they had called it a touchdown, that play would have stood. But since they didn't, the ruling on the field is what stood. The Jake Locker TD was far more egregious.

He 1000% was out of bounds. It's not even up for debate.
