Now, I'm sure that there will be Pats fans saying "Yeah, but...", and referencing previous plays where the rules may have been interpreted differently.
That was what I was thinking while watching the replay. He clearly had the ball 3 steps and established himself as a runner. Also had control when stretching for the goaline. No way they overturn that and Chris Collinsworth was acting like a D-Bag for the way he whined during that replay.
