So let's look at the rule as both you and the ref's tried to explain.
Say that a defensive player intercepts the ball and lands on the ground. According to what has been said thus far, the ball is dead, not a catch, not an interception until he tries to get up with it, or is touched by the other team... So you catch a pass from the qb, lie on the ground for an extended period, let's say three seconds or one minute [time should not be a factor according to what I have heard thus far] and as you start to get up, you drop the ball. This equals an incomplete pass???? I guess only at the RCA Dome.
