One aspect of this was that his knee came down well before the ball
came out as his body hit the ground.  Is he down on the ground when
his knee is down?

> "Airborne receiver A85 grasps a forward pass and in the process
> of going to the ground, first contacts the ground with his left foot
> inbounds as he falls to the ground out of bounds. Immediately
> upon A85 hitting the ground out of bounds, the ball comes loose.
> RULING: Incomplete pass regardless of whether or not the ball hits
> the ground because the receiver is out of bounds."
