No, this call was way worse. Bryant caught the ball, put it in his left hand, and held the ball as he dove for the goal line. The ball was completely under his control as he dove. As the ground cannot cause a fumble, it should have been a first down where he came down with it.

See post 48. You are not only wrong about what happened you are wrong on the rule.

LOLOL, if Bryant’s knee had hit before the ball reached the ground, then it would be a fumble, perhaps. As his knee did not hit, the ball coming loose upon striking the ground is an incomplete pass. Period. Whine all you want, it is in the books now. LOL
