The commentators thought it was going to be overturned and I initially thought the same thing. I think the key to understanding the call is that it was initially ruled a TD. The review can only overturn a call if there is indisputable evidence that it was wrong. Determining whether Thomas had control of the ball or not was strictly a judgement call, with no definitive proof one way or another, so the replay official probably felt he couldn't overturn the initial call. If the pass had been ruled incomplete initially, I think that call would have stood as well...for exactly the same reason.
This is the longest way to write "not enough evidence to overturn"

In real time the ref didn't see the bobble. Replay clearly did. He didn't get possession until out of bounds. Easy overturn. But for some reason Birmingham decided to leave it. The on field ref told Lane that he didn't agree but it wasn't his call.
