Not saying they would have won, but it sure looks when you blow it up further there is a strip of green there.

If you look at the replay, there are two officials right on

the line, one about 8-10 yards ahead of the runner, the other about 7-8 yards behind the runner at the time he was nearest the sideline. They both are looking straight down the line as be was tiptoeing at the line. Hard to believe they didn't get it right.

I saw that he was also out at the 48.75 yd. line with his left foot which was just one step before your photo.
Bottomline, ref got it right Woofies!

Yeah, he was out.

The only angle that shows him on the line is the shot from behind him. The official behind him was straddle the line just a few yards back in a perfect position to make the call. Don't think the guys in the replay booth didn't consider that first and dismiss a replay review immediately.

He may have been out. He may have been in. But the point

is that it isn't as clear as the announcers and pundits are proclaiming. The ref actually made a very legitimate call, possibly getting it correct when nobody else did.
Did the shoe touch the white? Maybe. Was there a sliver of grass there? Maybe.
