The call was correct. The rule needs to be changed.

Yes, I'm going to take something from freaking ChicagoBears.com, i.e., the NFL, on this particular play as fact. Someone please explain to me why this was a catch in the CFL, Arena League, Pop Warner league, Lingerie League, the playground, and everywhere else on the planet aside from the NFL? I still disagree that the rule was written to interpret the Calvin Johnson play as a non-catch, regardless of what Chicago Bears fans and the NFL say.

Man, just when I was beginning to forget about this travesty and get ready for the pummeling the Eagles are going to lay on the Lions on Sunday, someone brings it back. Rar.

I'm not posting the video to say when the Bears got screwed on the same call. What I'm posting is the fact this incident has been called on other occasions. Unfortunately I don't have video of other teams getting screwed over the same call.

Chris Collinsworth and Jack Buck said in the video that 'if a player goes to the ground in the act of catching a pass, he must maintain control of the ball after he touches the ground.'

Like I said before its the 2nd worst rule in football behind the tuck rule.

Jack Buck is dead

I think I'll start calling Joe Buck, Francis.
