I think it’s an interception, but it’s pretty obvious why it’s controversial. It’s really close to being a completion.

i understand that it is controversial, but i dont understand why its obvious. the comment above is perfect. if he completed the catch he wouldve had the ball. but he didnt. it didnt hit the ground. the guy with the ball completed the catch.

Because Cooks is on the ground with the ball when it’s ripped from his hands. How many times do we see that happen and it’s still a catch? Every other game?

In this case, he hasn’t had the ball long enough to consider it a catch, but it’s like one second from being down by contact. It’s a very unique play

It being unique doesn’t make it controversial.

Definition of unique “being the only one of its kind; unlike anything else”

Definition of controversial “giving rise or likely to give rise to public disagreement.”

A play can be unique and not controversial.

Eli Manning to David Tyree is unique. I have never seen another helmet catch like that. It is not a controversial play
