"Calvin Johnson" Rule to be Reviewed

Hopefully you've seen this play by now. You can see that Calvin Johnson leaps and makes a spectacular catch, but it's ruled incomplete because he doesn't maintain possession upon falling to the ground. Johnson's touchdown would have meant a win for the Lions. The rule is set to be reviewed in the offseason by the NFL's competition committee. Co-chairman of the competition committee and Falcons president Rich McKay commented, saying, "I think we need to go back and look at the rule and make sure we haven't extended it too far."

Along with the "Calvin Johnson" rule, as it's being called now, the NFL and NFL players association are also scheduled to review the rules on ball carriers losing their helmets, a possible lockout, and financial aid for retired players who need it.
