This dumbass did not even watch the play again. Possession was not establish while both player were in the air. The ball was rolling off Bray's shoulder pad until both players were on the ground.He is just trying to justify Fox paying him for his bullshite commentary. He missed it this time


At the time, I really thought that the pass landed perfectly in the hands of the cornerback for a catch. The AU WR was also in pretty good contact with the ball(one hand on it more than the other) while the corner's foot hit. They then went to the ground while the AU WR somehow, and miraculously, got a perfect hold of the ball just as the corner had.

I was shite tanked during the game though, and haven't seen the play since. So I really have no idea if I'm right.

They would have not been able to overturn the call, if the Official had said it was incomplete. There was not full possession in the air, and Bray got duel possession as he was rolling out of bounds. Pereira was just trying to impress people with his knowledge of the rulebook, but he did not apply it correctly.
