Are you another one who needs to have the concept of a forward pass explained to you?

This is not an opinion. It is a fact. It is what happened. It is what the NCAA rules analysts that are paid to do this ruled. It is what Brian Kelly, the Head Coach of the team people love on here, CONFIRMED happened. Blame the rule. It is stupid.
There needs to be another division of “going to the ground” … the rule as written and applied makes sense for a receiver making a diving catch. It doesn’t and shouldn't apply to the scenario of Browns catch (it was a catch)

Awww…sorry not to have included illustrations and pop ups so that you can understand the issue here (which is not the forward pass play).

You’re just butthurt. The issue here literally is a pass play. Posted on 9/5/25 at 9:38 am to Recoveringcajun

I will never understand why a runner can score a TD as soon as the ball breaks the plane of the goal line even if he loses possession afterward (such as when he hits the ground or when an opponent swats it away) but a receiver who catches a pass in the endzone does not score a TD if he loses control when he lands on the turf (inbounds or not).
Because according to the rules, a runner being upright has established possession in the field of play. A receiver going down in the process of completing the catch has not established possession in the field of play.

It was a TD regardless of what the rule states. Ball possessed and crossed the pilon.

The ball significantly moved when it hit the ground
But his hand moved with it. Not loss of control. If a ball can't move with the hands still controlling it, there is no such thing as a catch when you hit the ground.

nah. Maybe you need to look closer at a different angle.
He very clearly loses control. It is extremely brief but he loses control

People are still arguing about it even with Brian Kelly saying the call was correct

Because even experts can’t agree on what a catch is anymore.

If we had lost, would he say the same? I have a feeling BK's views have more to do with not wanting his team lingering on it than what he truly thinks.
Besides, it is not like BK is the end-all be-all on whether it was correctly called. Other experts have said the opposite.
Right or wrong, I'll agree with BK that it's time to move on.

lol
"Experts" no longer employed as actual rule analysts by the NCAA or the conferences
The rule says it was the right call. The video clearly shows it was the right call. Brian Kelly says it was the right call.
It was the right call based on a horrific rule. There is simply no argument. The only people arguing it do not understand the rule, or have not looked at the play and seen what it actually shows.

"The rule was applied correctly by the letter of it," Kelly said. "But rules are made to be changed, and so hopefully down the road, I think there'll be some changes in the way that is looked at. But the crew administered the protocols and procedures the right way on that play."

But at the end of the Brian Kelly show didn’t he say that it was a damn catch.
