His knee was clearly down. There is definitely solid proof to overturn it. The placement of the ball since he stretched should be at about the 1/2 yard line.

His knee was down but the refs might say the ball was out even though it was in his right hand

I think we're about to be victimized by what I think is one of the dumbest rules in sports. I've NEVER understood why possession switches when the other team never touches the ball... anywhere else on the field.. the defense has to touch the ball...

But that IS the rule.

Clearly means the refs will see it the other way.

Be shame to lose this call afte driving it all the way down the field.

YES - DOWN BY CONTACT !!!

Wow.. even tho it was so clear I was still unsure of the overturn.

Yes! Reviewing the play worked as it should.

wow...can't believe the call went our way.

S S & L says the ball crossed the plane.

Whooooooooo!

knee was down first.

Plow it through fellas!

We've been screwed like that before. So I'm glad they got it right.

Runner down. We get it on the 1.

HAIL TO THE REDSKINS !!!

TD! Took the refs a while to call it when it was obvious but oh well.

And it is now a TD for CP! Hail to the Redskins!

Damn dude what are the refs looking at, why does it take them so long to call a TD it was so obvious, his whole freakin body had crossed the line.
