You telling me Mond has a grasp on that football w/ 3 fingers on the point of the football and he has control of it.
By rule once you touch the ball while the ball is on the ground if your knee is also on the ground its considered dead at that point. That was a good call by the officials.

So as a defender you just have to touch a loose ball to recover it?
As a receiver if the ball hits the ground on catch it doesn't matter because touching it constitutes possession?

So when you’re recovering a fumble: ball is on ground, you’re laying on the ground, all you have to do is touch it to have the play called dead as if you recovered it? Pretty sure you have to have possession of the ball to be considered down in any situation of football

Wait so on any fumble if a player dives for the ball and is in the ground all he has to do is touch the ball and he gets it? If so refs have been ruling fumble recoveries wrong for years.

So the only thing the defense has to do to recover a fumble is touch it while they are on the ground?

I will wait for the next fumble to see is this is true.

I don't get it then. Doesn't that mean that the first person that touches a normal fumple while on the ground gets the ball?
