Both toes in
that pic shows only one foot.
you know, i was really wondering about that call too. it looks an awful lot like his right foot was actually on top of his left foot and possibly not touching the ground. its so hard to tell though.
I thought the same thing until they showed the replay from field level. He definitely had both toes down.
no he didn't.........its a fraud.
I was wasted at this point of the game but I thought he got both feet in based on the replay at field level as disgruntled mentioned.
Video replays showed both feet in.

You can see his right foot clearly bend upwards at the toes when they hit the ground. This while the left foot is down and the ball is secured.
An easy call.
But I love how the conspiracy theorists are passing around still photo's to try and make their case. Still pics aren't going to show the .2 and .3 seconds before the picture was taken. Three pictures will ALWAYS make a play look like you want it (or the person posting them in this case wants them) to look. The call on the field was a TD, there was zero conclusive evidence that showed different, correct call no matter what.
As much as I wanted that not to be a touchdown, it was a touchdown. It might have been the third best touchdown catch of the game.
If you're going to , at least say that you've never seen a running into the holder penalty or complain that they didn't review the last fumble. Don't bring weak in here; save that for the political forum.
Feet are in. cool_hand is a conspiracy nut
That vid sucks because it only shows one angle. That said, even if they only had this view, there wasn't conclusive evidence to overturn the call.
This angle, starting at 1:22, shows the right call was made. Click on the HD link bottom right under the vid.
Hey, what about when Harrison ran back the pick & Fitz grabbed the ball while outta bounds!!??
Should the ball have been dead!??
Holmes was in -- it was a great catch.
With that said, I still can't fathom why they didn't require a review of the Warner "fumble" at the end. Even if you believe it's not a fumble, give Cardinals fans the belief that they got a full review without the rush between snaps.
It's really unconscionable to me that there wasn't a review of that play.
I think that's the second time the NFL has failed to do that at the end of a game. Of course they come back later and say "yeah we looked at it".
Even "yeah we looked at it" shouldn't cut it at that point in that game. Take the 90 seconds that a review would encompass but be sure that the call is right. That's what the system's there to do, even if the result stays the same in the end.
Plus, if they did overturn the call, Cards have one last play inside the Steelers' 30.
Officiating sucked taint in this game. How do you miss Holmes' celebration? They called that all year and then decide to let it go in the SB?
