Watch the replay on YouTube at .25 speed. It was the right call because Brooks never did secure it even though I thought otherwise last night.

This situation needs to be addressed even though it doesn't happen very often. A player who is out of bounds as Latu was is not eligible to do anything on the field until he reestablishes himself in bounds. There fore it should be treated like he isn't even there.

Football games are not meant to be watched in 1/4 speed, that the biggest problem with instant replay! No official on the field can do that, unless we want computers and sensor detecting everything we need to run at regular speed. That’s how the game is played.

There is absolutely no way you can say he didn’t have possession for the split second that bammer touched.

OP is 100% correct in that the play lacked evidence necessary to overturn the call on the field.

Most blatant frickery I’ve seen in a long time
