Yep what a joke. Finley took 4 steps, got his butt down and his elbow and then the ball popped out. Hernandez landed on his back and the ball came out.

While both are clearly TDs if they rule 1 isn't a TD then the other shouldn't have been either. They didn't even review it even though Simms and that dolt Jim Nantz were all "oh it was reviewed" (in like 3 seconds).
I think the difference between those two plays is that Hernandez had it poked out. Maybe that's another 'act'. If that's the case it's pretty silly. Why give a disincentive for the defender trying to get the ball out? It shouldn't be better for him to leave the receiver alone and hope the all wiggles out on its own... I don't think I've ever heard that kind of play explained by the NFL, so that's all speculation.
