Looks like Cooks absorbed the ground

Clearly moving

Don’t see that

@2bleedblue2 U blind then

@Rondo3_ @2bleedblue2 I love lessen McCoy

Knee was down. Was the argument they used in the rams game

Think he lost it when he hit the ground looking at this view

My replay is the same. Just slo

@sir_marzy here’s a better one

@sir_marzy Looks even more like a catch

@therealcanwater They both eventually had hands on the ball, and Cooks clearly lost control when his back hit the turf. It wasn’t really ripped away like I thought earlier, the DB just secured it as Cooks let it go.

This is why I’ll never get that “survive the ground” and “if there was no db there” stuff. He survived the ground, if there’s no db there it’s a catch. This is called a catch for 31 other teams.

Stripped from his hands but ruled down by contact with an offensive catch on this play but not cooks

I need this video

Anyone with momentum is going to be able to rip the ball out. It truly opens it up for any db to do so moving forward even after the pass catcher hits the ground with possession and being contacted by the defender. A dangerous precedent was set !!!!

I don’t see how they said he was losing control when he hit the ground. It was between their bodies when it hit the ground and you can see the DB rip it away as he rolls over him. Down by contact or tie goes to receiver. Either way that should have been a catch. Looks clear to me

Every single week he had a questionable catch while playing here. Crazy. Think the NFL gives a 32 year old nfl vet some benefit of the doubt but he's got a bills uniform on so nope. Has to be a chiefs or patriots jersey

Just hold on to it like it’s your job and we don’t have to talk about it.

Looks like Jaquan had more possession of the ball than cooks

Is this play a catch and fumble? Hardman hits the ground with possession and then immediately loses it. It feels like that’s what you’re trying to argue with the interception play.

Sure did but couldn’t hold it to make certain it was a catch. One day someone will make the play for Allen. I’ve watched enough football to know that SB Champs have contributors all over the field. Unfortunately Allen’s main target at the end was added 2 months ago.

Ball was never secure as he hit the ground.

Looks like Cooks loses control of the ball before his shoulder hits. Which by rule is an incomplete catch.

Oh cmon 🤓

You might be super biased, Buffalo Bill Injury Expert...

completed pass

He survived the ground .. but afterward a DB ripped it out pretty clearly a catch … unless the game is rigged

Bills still at this?

12 hours ago ?

How about now?

Still mad

It’s cuz he did

At no point in this clip is the catch finished.

I love your smile

Thank ya thigh doctor 👍🏻

🫂

He literally doesn’t have the ball right here. The catch was not competed before this. If McMillan isn’t there, and the ball came out at this same point, it would be ruled incomplete. Idk why this is hard for people. He can’t be down by contact without completing the process.

Surviving the ground doesn’t mean only until you stop the clip. If he rolled over with it and kept possession but he didn’t

Thank you for showing the ball moving

Apparently he didn’t roll around on the ground long enough

Best shot yet

It’s no different than the Adam’s catch. Ask Sherman

Just not the ball

It’s funny because that’s the angle that shows he didn’t. The ball is moving before he hits the ground. And he’s also not a runner, so he’s not down, didn’t make a football move, and needs to survive the ground. If the ball comes out a second (even half) later, it’s a catch.

Two hands firmly on the ball from cooks and one from the defender. He maintains control until he’s flat on his back during the barrel roll and the defender is coming over the top and pulling it out. Not sure where people see the ball moving or “popping out”

Pretty clearly if you go frame by frame. But they called it an INT on the field and weren’t going to overturn on review in Denver.

@grok is the a reception or interception?

That’s the funny thing about the explanations saying he must survive the ground…because he does!

Because he did

@GeneSteratore where is the clear movement of the ball from cooks hitting the ground? This looks pretty clear he wasn’t going to fumble if the defender wasnt there but u stated that 4 times on the show today saying clearly the ball being loose from impact. @richeisen @KyleBrandt
