I appreciate payton's challenge. It was a pretty loud, frick you goodell, when they are made to look a-holes for such stupid arse rules.

contact by an opponent) must maintain control of the ball until after his initial contact with the ground, whether in the
field of play or the end zone. If he loses control of the ball, and the ball touches the ground before he regains control,
there is no possession. If he regains control prior to the ball touching the ground, it is a catch, interception, or
recovery. A player is considere
I highlighted the changes
I'd argue that the initial contact is the knees, and he had full control at that point. I have no idea why they made that change though and what it is supposed to fix

But Watson's was and should have been.
