What seems to be a fundamental part, the act of a forward pass, is now governed by rules that seem indecipherable

Kansas City’s Super Bowl win over Philadelphia had a lot of redeeming qualities: plenty of points, big plays, lead changes, a teary-eyed coach.Sign up to receive daily headline news from Ottawa Citizen, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.By clicking on the sign up button you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.

Philadelphia Eagles’ Jalen Hurts scores a two-point conversion at the Super Bowl LVII on February 12, 2023.Replays showed, though, that the ball moved around a little in Smith’s arms as he went down in a heap out of bounds. He had, in the vernacular, lost control of the ball, even if he kept it from hitting the turf. This is the kind of play that the NFL has recently been ruling incomplete.

Dallas Goedert #88 of the Philadelphia Eagles reaches for a catch against L’Jarius Sneed #38 of the Kansas City Chiefs and Bryan Cook #6 of the Kansas City Chiefs during the third quarter in Super Bowl LVII at State Farm Stadium on February 12, 2023 in Glendale, Arizona.Later that same drive, Dallas Goedert caught a ball along the sideline off another deep Hurts pass. Once again, it looked like a catch in real time.

It is beyond strange that a common refrain from NFL analysts, coaches and fans is that no one really knows what a catch is anymore. How did the league manage to make this so complicated? Replay is part of it, as the availability of super slow-motion images allows for an amount of second-guessing that then makes the league try to codify everything down to the finest detail.
