Quick question for discussion as it relates to that specific play......if Dez does everything the same except as he is falling towards the goal line a defender punches the ball out before he hits the ground, is it ruled a fumble or incomplete pass?

Discuss.
I'll start.....I believe it would be correctly called a fumble after three steps and a lunge toward the goal line. Which makes it so hard to see how he didn't have possession.

Glad I could answer my own question.
