Re: Freeman TD
For any pass reception where the receiver ends up going to the ground, they have to have control through the catch ie 'complete the process'. It does not matter how many steps they take if going to the group while catching the ball. I disagree with this one and the Dez Bryant play but that is the current rule.
OBJ was not a catch by any means.

We get the rule just that the rule is dumb. He caught it and started running with it. Who cares if he was "going to the ground" in the process. To me he became a runner before hitting the ground = catch. The way it should be. As it is now it just goes against common sense and leads to ridiculous calls like the INT in the Panthers game I linked earlier.
