[QUOTE="Durbanite, post: 869948, member: 73156"] Much obliged! I see now what you guys mean about a possible release but mostly it seems to me that Skosan is out of Del la Fuente's reach when he regathered his feet which to me suggests that his momentum did not allow Del la Fuente to maintain his grip. If Skosan was a little bit slower I think he would've been pinged for not releasing the ball as he wouldn't have bounced his way through the line. It's pretty much a glorified ankle tap to my eyes and I'd be interested to see how the TMO would've interpreted it. According to WR "A ball carrier who is not held is not a tackled player and a tackle has not taken place." [/QUOTE]
