18. Well see that negates then the call on teh field
The ball had bounced away from him, and the Steeler caught it. There was no way for the Charger to possibly make the catch.

Just dumb. On a fair catch, the ball and the player should be respected and not interfered with at all, yet once the ball touches the player, if he doesn't have possession, and it no longer is touching him....ie he bobbles it, or it hits his head, or whatever...it's live. If he touches it and maintains touch on it, he has full rights to make the possession, but as soon as it touches him, and then stops touching him...it's live. That's how it should be.
