Yeah it was a catch I agree,I'll bet thats the last time Calvin Johnson lets the ball go on the grass after receiving a catch hahaha!!! If this were the 1970's or early 80's that would of been a catch! lol! I still say that Cutler will spell the doom of the Bears in the long run Ron! lol!!

Your right HRMG!! But the same rule applies whether it's a touchdown or on the playing field. I personally thought it was a catch.
Which brings me to this...
The so called non-TD TD that has everybody upset isn't the end all beat all for the Lions / Bears game. Until that last drive the Lions had (I think) 99 yards of total offense!! They couldn't do ANYTHING against the Bears 'D'. Yeah, they scored twice, but we gave up the ball 4 times (twice deep)!! And that doesn't include a dropped TD by us on like the 3rd play of the game. The Lions 'D' had no answer to the Bears 'O'. They marched up and down the field at will against them...again, Bears turnovers and penalties are why the game was even close at the end. By my calculations, the Bears could of / should have easily won the game 35 or 42 to 0.
But I wholeheartedly agree...that WAS a TD catch in my book and the Bears are lucky to have escaped with a win!!
J.D.......DALLAS is next!!!!! lol

I could, but it's much easier if you watch a game with someone and they explain it play by play. Too many rules..... like that must "maintain control of the ball during the entire action of a catch in order for it to be counted as a touchdown" . I say he was putting the ball on the ground to try to push himself up and then dropped it = separate action and therefore a TOUCHDOWN! He should have just stayed on his back until they gave him the touchdown and THEN got up!
