Even if that were true, it says "any intentional forward movement of his arm starts a forward pass, even if the player loses possession of the ball", which is clearly the case. I wish Mike Pereira still worked for the NFL and did those weekly "this is how we didn't actually fuck up even though we actually did fuck up" videos. I mean, he's clearly not just shotputting the ball forward to fake a pass attempt. The way I read the rule, it basically says that as long as there's some semblance of control at some point between the very beginning of a forward pass and the completion of a "tucking" action, whatever the fuck that is, it is a forward pass and not a fumble. It's hard to speculate, but it looks like he's trying to pump fake so that he can re-grip. Anyway, that's the last I'm going to say about it. The Steelers won, and I feel fine with the Giants losing after the entire NFC East did them a favor by losing too, so they still have a 2.5 game lead.
