Did they have a better angle or something?
I was unsure after the first few replays but there was one when they zoomed it in and slowed it down where you could see the ball was not possessed on the way to the ground.

The initial call wasn’t necessarily a bad call. Player clearly had the ball and some control. The question was did he maintain it long enough. There was no clear evidence that he did not, and thus it should have stood.
The problem with this is that the entire point of replay was to correct calls where clear video evidence 100% proves the opposite happened. It’s not supposed to be a judgment call. If it becomes a judgment call then it stands. That is literally the rule.
Except when you want to steal the game for the league’s bell cow that given year.

It wasn't a catch. That's the exact play replay is for - to correct a season defining incorrect 50/50 call made in the heat of the moment

look how divided everyone is about the call, thats why you don’t overturn it
it was simply a business decision by Phillips and co on Tobacco Road

The instant 9 for VT hits the ground he is on his teammate who is laying out of bounds. It’s incomplete from that moment and nothing matters. 9 never once hits in bounds with the ball touching his hands
The possession or not is completely irrelevant

The replay didn’t show disputable evidence it wasn’t a catch. It was called a catch. Doesn’t add up.

Almost no one thinks it was really a catch, just that you can't prove it wasn't.

Umm. Wrong. He is only out of bounds if he touches out of bounds himself or a player out of bounds touches the ball while out of bounds before the player catches it and lands in bounds.
You seriously have no idea how the rules work.

People are divided on the call because the underdog lost. Not because it was the correct call.

This. Which, remarkably, the broadcast crew and the "expert" official failed to ever mention. If not for their incompetence this wouldn't even be an issue.

It was incomplete multiple ways
1. Never had full possession for long enough
2. Laying on a teammate who was out of bounds while the catch was "completed"

I respectfully disagree. Theoretically possession was before that.

Dude he clearly touched in bounds with the ball in his hands. Now you are just trying to fight your pathetic argument in a different way and even that isn’t correct, but that is typical you so no one is shocked.

That ball still hasn’t touched the ground.

You have two players landing out of bounds touching the ball the same exact time #9 for VT hits the ground

That’s not how it works in the end zone.

So according to you, a defensive player just needs to step out of bounds and touch the receiver before they come down to make it incomplete for sure?
Some of you have no idea how the rules work. Good God.
