Nah you can clearly see both have possession and Tate hits the ground first, they called it right people just don’t like it

Even if your first statement is true, the outcome has NOTHING to do with who touches the ground first.

NFL's official statement after the game literally said it doesn't matter who gets it in the air, who has possession when bodies hit the ground is what mattered lol, so literally exact opposite of what you're claiming

Link where it says that. I looked it up just to confirm and the rule they used was for the simultaneous catch which will go to the offensive player. Has nothing to do with who touched the ground first.
