I agree that it was sketchy, but also think that, cosidering the rule, was called correctly during the review.

It was the correct call. The rule says that the player has to maintain control of the ball while on the ground, his knee was still on the ground when the ball popped out so technically he was still on the ground. A stupid rule (like the tuck rule) but thats the way its worded.
I think Indy thought they had become a physical football team but the Steelers showed them what physical football is. I think the Steelers are a real threat to go all the way.
