Interesting focus on the blade positioning of the hand.

But I have to say, if I were a Ravens fan, watching that fraction of a second of victory-to-defeat over and over like that would make me physically ill. Ever since 2007, I can't help empathizing with that kind of thing.

Good Stuff

Before seeing this video I was not sure than Evans foot did not hit the ground before the ball slid below his forearm but that video clearly shows it was probably a 1/2 second before his foot hit the ground and by then the ball was at his stomach area.

A 1/2 second before the foot hits the turf is the reason why Baltimore is not playing the Giants in SB 42.

I can't say thank you enough to Sterling Moore for a veteran Pro Bowl type play.

Yeah, I did not realize how close it was until they showed the replay and then I was just ill wiith relief when I saw the ball coming out before the second foot hit..

It´s so damn close, thank god Moore did what he did.

If we win the SB, this is a play that I will never be able to watch again without my stomach turning, seeing how close we were to lose the AFCCG. Unbelievable play there.

Defensive play of the season so far. Such an incredibly tight margin of error. If that wouldn't have been called incomplete, not sure if it would have gotten overturned. It was clearly not a catch, but with that tight a margin, I'm glad they got it right the first time.

People will still believe what they want to believe.

Though if this was ruled a touchdown, I'm betting the house the ref wouldn't have overturned the call.

It's eerily reminiscent of the tuck rule in that regard. Such an unbelievably close call that could have ended our season if called the other way. Like you, I've replayed in my head what would have happened if Moore had been a fraction of a second too late to the ball

I was at the game and Evans' back was turned to me when that play happened. I was sick to my stomach for a moment because it looked like he had the touchdown. Then I saw the ball bouncing on the ground and I waited until the referees signalled incomplete before I unfroze myself and celebrated Moore's play.
