Possession + crossing the goal line is a TD. No "football" move is required. Otherwise the Cards win the SB last year. And it was a completely clean catch. Easy call.

Yep, exactly. I thought that 2-point conversion was good before the replay and was screaming for Payton to challenge that call. The replay is extremely clear, ball broke the plane and possession was made. Excellent concentration to make that play. I hope you guys post some pictures of your parade, I'd really like to see some.
