Watched the replay a few times this morning on ESPN who did a nice job showing the sliver of green in between Davis' left foot and the sideline.  But in watching those replays it looked to me as though he bobbled the ball slightly after getting two feet in, reestablishing full possession only AFTER he lifted his right foot.  

 

If any of you care to review the play and comment, I'd like to read your takes.  I think it could have been ruled incomplete based on the late bobble.

Some of these will never be 100% clear

if they had called it incomplete on the field, that call woulda stood as well. No clear and convincing evidence to overturn what was called.

 

Bottomline: bobbling the ball the ball doesn’t invalidate the catch so long as WR have control. one way a replay official judges control is by seeing if at least one hand is always on the ball. I think Gabe always had one hand on the ball.

In a year of many pleasant surprises, Gabe emerging as such a savvy receiver in his rookie season has to be near the top of that list, maybe top five.

Gabe Davis is everything we thought Zay Jones would be. He’s gonna be scary good in a couple years.

He's got time. He can develop into a much better drugged up naked hotel vandalizer with a higher ceiling.

2nd throw I thought was more impressive. Rolling to his left and throwing cross body while being chased. We've seen it several times this year.  I can honestly say from what I've seen this year that no QB tosses a better cross body throw with velocity and accuracy than our boy Josh. That's not homerism, it's reality.

Expand  

 

What I really loved about that throw was Josh taking a moment before the throw to get himself set. 2 years ago, or last year even, he just launches that ball IMO, and who knows where it ends up. But with that extra moment he was able to deliver a precise throw to set up an amazing catch.

This is correct

I thought the other sideline catch was closer to be honest. It was hard to tell if he had already lifted his foot up before he had caught the ball. Again they ruled it a catch so there was not enough to overturn.

One thing going in his favor on that one is they said during the broadcast you could see the pebbles popping up, a sure sign of the toe drag.
