    Yep. Just like Antonio Freeman. He never touched the ground, only the opponent.

    Looks to me, from the side angle, that his hands go down before the end zone. But I'm not in charge.

    How could it not be a TD? He caught it in front of the receiver standing at the goal line, hence the 100-yard return.

    Best Super Bowl play I've ever seen.

    It's a TD.

    Is Al Michaels correct about the half being over if they rule it down?

    I thought they couldn't end the half on a penalty.

    Hands and feet touching the ground is not down.

    I'd rather it not have been a TD, but I think they got the call right.

    Can't end on a defensive penalty. Penalty was on the offense.

    An all-time Super Bowl play and an all-time Maddenism:

    Manning and Tyree, your reign lasted one year.

    THAT is the most remarkable play in Super Bowl history.

    No, it's not.

    It was a great return -- just like Desmond Howard or Larry Brown or any other great return.
