the ref has to confirm the catch and call for the clock to be stopped. there is your 2 seconds.

In either instance the clock should have been stopped. If he did not catch the ball the clock stops on the incompletion. Tolliver caught the pass is clearly on the ground, thus the play is over. Since this is a first down the official should stop the clock. It is possible the TV clock is not compatible with the offciail game clock, but if it is then there should have been at least two seconds when play resumed.
