I think he completed the act. He caught the ball and got in the end zone, and they ruled him out of bounds. To me, this should be a touchdown, but it all goes back to the Calvin Johnson play.

We just didn't do what we had to do
Like I said, I just knew that with Detroit, Calvin Johnson had done the same thing. I figured that’s what it was going to be. You’ve got to complete the catch all the way to the ground in the end zone. But you never know. It could’ve went either way. It’s just one of those plays
We just got to get back our timing
Our game is not bigger than the Ravens and 49ers ... It's pretty cool and no doubt special. [But] during the game I don't think Jim and I will be focused on things like, 'That's my brother over there.' For both of us, it will be about finding a way to win this game.
