The Fumble call

Whether it was actually a fumble I have no idea, but the call standing was correct. Every camera angle had someone obscuring the ball partially or wholly, and it was impossible to really know when it came lose.

That's the thing though; the ball was still touching Cook when he landed on his culo, but it was clearly moving.

That tells me that possession was lost at some point in the half second before he was down: pinpointing the exact moment of that, however, is indeed inconclusive, hence the call on the field.

But the only conclusive thing that mattered, is that the ball was moving when he was down; period.
