Clearly you need to rewatch the Eifert TD. He took two steps in the field of play (that 100 yards between the endzones) and crossed the goal line as a runner. The whole time engaged by a tackler.
On the Tate catch he's a receiver catching the ball in the endzone (the 10 yards on both ends) Tate was also immediately engaged by a tackler.
If you are a runner with clear possession in the field of play (the 100 yards between the endzones) the instant the ball crosses the first mili inch of the goal line it's a touch down.
Tate was a receiver who caught the ball in the endzone (the 10 yards on either end) that you can't be established as a runner in because by default you instantly ummmmmmmmm score.
Tate had to complete the catch because he was a receiver. Which he didn't because the ball was nearly instantly knocked lose and intercepted.
Every announcer/analyst/ex-player I've heard comment on the Tate TD says it was clearly an interception.
Not real sure where you came up with a fumble ?
