Everytime I think I know the rule for what is a catch, I'm thrown a curveball.
I am NOT a referee or rule nazi that has the NFL rule book in my pocket so give me some slack.
So this is what threw me for a loop on Garrett Wilson's awesome catch last night:
Wilson came down with the ball, his left leg was in after replay confirmed but then he went out of the end zone and his left hand was clearly out BEFORE he got his right foot down.
I was always under the impression he needed both feet in the end zone BEFORE he touched out of bounds or else it didn't count.
Did they change the rule or am I missing something?

If a guy hops on 1 foot intentionally and gets pushed out of bounds, that’s like fumbling into the endzone because you dropped the ball at the 1 to celebrate.
I wouldn’t change a rule to protect a guy from his own stupidity.

One Shin = Two feet = TD
One foot twice ≠ shin ≠ TD
Two feet tap = TD
One foot in and toe touches line ≠ one shin
Shin > one foot
Shin = two feet
So how do deez nuts factor in?
Chris Jones Penis = One Shin = Two Feet

I believe his penis actually has a knee, so it already counts as two feet
