Garrett Wilson Adds Touchdown To “We Don’t Know What An NFL Catch Is” List | Pat McAfee Show

1. it's crazy that the George Pickens "catch" wasn't a catch because the same foot touched the end zone twice, but a foot and a shin, on the same leg is a catch, all in the same week.

2. If this is a catch, then so is George Picken's from MNF. And (even as a Steelers fan wanting GP's to be a catch) I don't think either should be counted as a catch, the knee here is definitely out

3. I dont get how that counts and Pickens didn't.

4. I don’t think anyone is mad this is a catch, it’s just that if this is a catch then there’s about 20 tds that should’ve been when they weren’t, the GP catch is an obvious example

5. As a Ravens fan I'm feeling some type of way.

6. This is obvious, they should have explained the rule. Ankle, shin, knee, hip, all count as down, and that occurred inbounds. I do not think shin only counts as 1 foot, McAfee throws everyone off from something that is not actually complicated.

7. Guys, the shin is the same as a forearm. It’s pretty straightforward. Only feet and hands are treated differently.

8. guys read the rulebook. if any body part other than hands touch the turf before going out of bounds and the ball is secure, it's a catch. This has been a rule for forever, but people want to believe conspiracies I guess.

9. He was out of bounds. Crazy catch. Out of bounds. Idk how your knee can hit out abd you get called in that was some crazy work by the people in ny……hmmm wait

10. How was that a catch but George Pickens wasn’t?

11. I'm sorry but if you don't understand why that IS a TD then you don't really know ball. It's pretty basic stuff

12. I’m glad it counted as a catch bc it’s insane, but my boy gp14’s catch should have been a touchdown.

13. At this point we need a point system. 10 points scores you a catch. Knee ass 10 points, one foot 5 points for first tap and 3 for subsequent taps. Shin 7 points.

14. It wasn’t a touchdown but he did catch the ball lol but it wasn’t a touchdown. The refs rewarded him for the catch though and I do appreciate that that’s the refs not ruining the game lol

15. 2 contacted points in bounds in addition to the current rules.

    2 one legged hops… Good!
    2 Cheeks… Good!
    1 heel and a taint… Good!

16. Half ❤

17. To anyone who doesn't understand the NFL counts different parts of the body as separate, but the whole foot counts as one. I would agree that the rule shouldn't be that strict on the foot if the toes come down in bounds well before the heel goes down, but rules as written the shin counts as a separate part because you can have the side of your shin hit the ground before the knee. And that is what happened on the Wilson catch he got one foot and a shin down in bounds so it counts as a catch.

18. Not a catch

19. Jets are still a terrible team. Great catch though.

    But I agree this is the exact same thing as the heel toe rule.

    Shin starts inbounds finishes out of bounds

20. “Why not” maybe because teams that have lost 5 straight have never made the playoffs 😭

21. Rule 8, Article 3, section B. “Touches the Ground inbounds with BOTH feet OR ANY PART OF HIS BODY OTHER THAN HIS HANDS.” Read it, know it, quit arguing about what is a catch and what isn’t. The shin is not part of the knee, the foot, or the hands, but it IS a part of the body down inbounds. To cement the fact that it was a catch, the play was called incomplete on the field, which forced a challenge flag instead of an auto review scoring play, and it was overturned, meaning the evidence was incontrovertible. You can make an argument that the rule should change again to include Pickens’ scenario, but as the rule reads, this is very clear. GW5 TD with a catch for the ages. Pickens incomplete.

22. This is insanity that people think a 3-6 team is going on a run after beating a team that is their top receivers down

23. I’m cool with two steps with the same foot counting, but I’ve never seen a players knee land clearly out of bounds and the refs use a “shin” to count him inbounds. This will end terribly in a high stakes game when we have to decide how much of the shin must land in bounds. Like if you shift dude one inch further out, is that enough shin to count? If the tip of a dudes cleat hits the line it’s out, but if a dudes knee lands out we count a shin. 😂

24. Two foots = two feet what are we doing

25. Lots of “same foot touching twice” comments happening… if the same foot touching twice is allowed, then what about long single foot toe drags? How short is too short for it to not count? If a one foot toe drag goes for 10ft, does that count? Who’s to say that his foot didn’t leave the ground for the smallest of time and the smallest of distance? Because if it did bounce even the tiniest bit, that would be the same foot “tapping twice”…. Would end up making the rulings even more subjective. The shin counting is interesting and adds to the subjectivity of calls. But if not the shin, where do we start? No matter where we start, subjectivity ensues. 🤷‍♂️

26. I don’t know, watching Aaron Rodgers , he doesn’t look like a hof qb right now, he literally fed the ball to davante for 4 straight downs one drive , all incomplete

27. lol they put up bryce hall

28. It wasn’t a catch, they wanted the highlight.

29. What happened to 2 feet for touchdown? Refs gave them the game.

30. Rodgers is toxic!!!!!

31. If Pickens got robbed, this isn’t a catch.

32. Wasn't a catch..

33. If dks wasnt a catch nether is garrets.

34. Cost Woody a bunch for that one!

35. Nah it should’ve been a knee. Hell of a catch, but out of bounds. Last week the guy tapped his foot twice and they didn’t count it

36. This is definitely out and for some reason everybody is hyping it up. This is a legit out catch I've seen it plenty of times through out every season but since the NFL doesn't want jets embarrassed they give it to them.

37. Hell nah

38. How are this many adults confused. Two feet or ANY OTHER body part. The shin isn’t a foot. Touchdown. It’s that simple.

39. This was such an easy obvious catch, not sure what the confusion is

40. Why not say one foot .. it’s a catch …. Come on !

41. This was 100% not a catch lmao. Shouldn’t have counted whatsoever.

42. What if you're only able to touch with your third leg? Does that equal two feet, or just six inches?

43. You make a two tap same foot a catch, WRs will perfect the double tap and it’ll be college rules basically.
    This isn’t a catch, so neither is Pickens catch.

44. Damn it! He’s too late!

45. If you go up for the ball, catch it, and land inbound on one foot then that should be a catch. Easy call.
    If you are grounded with one foot inbound and the other foot outbound, then that is not a catch. Easy call.

46. If that’s a tf then George picken catch was also a td

47. 2023 what is a touchdown?🤣
