Quote

COMPLETED OR INTERCEPTED PASS

A player who makes a catch may advance the ball. A forward pass is complete (by the offense) or intercepted (by the defense) in the field of play, at the sideline, or in the end zone if a player, who is inbounds:

a. secures control of the ball in his hands or arms prior to the ball touching the ground; and

b. touches the ground inbounds with both feet or with any part of his body other than his hands; and

c. after (a) and (b) have been fulfilled, performs any act common to the game (e.g., tuck the ball away, extend it forward, take an additional step, turn upfield, or avoid or ward off an opponent), or he maintains control of the ball long enough to do so. 

Notes:

Movement of the ball does not automatically result in loss of control.
If a player, who satisfied (a) and (b), but has not satisfied (c), contacts the ground and loses control of the ball, it is an incomplete pass if the ball hits the ground before he regains control, or if he regains control out of bounds
A receiver is considered a player in a defenseless posture (See 12-2-7) throughout the entire process of the catch and until the player is capable of avoiding or warding off the impending contact of an opponent.
If a pass is caught simultaneously by two eligible opponents, and both players retain it, the ball belongs to the passers. It is not a simultaneous catch if a player gains control first and an opponent subsequently gains joint control. If the ball is muffed after simultaneous touching by two such players, all the players of the passing team become eligible to catch the loose ball.
If a player, who is in possession of the ball, is held up and carried out of bounds by an opponent before both feet or any part of his body other than his hands touches the ground inbounds, it is a completed or intercepted pass. It is not necessary for the player to maintain control of the ball when he lands out of bounds.
ARTICLE 4. INCOMPLETE PASS
Any forward pass (legal or illegal) is incomplete and the ball is dead immediately if the pass strikes the ground or goes out of bounds. An incomplete pass is a loss of down, and the ball returns to the previous spot.

Note: If there is any question whether a forward pass is complete, intercepted, or incomplete, it is to be ruled incomplete.

so basically it's still a bit subjective. refs interpret it. don't expect that to be done fairly or consistently.

    • No he just isn't good. The team literally made the playoffs a few years ago. He has declined since. The tools you say he has is "the look". Sure he looks like he's a franchise QB, but when he gets on the field he's just not that guy.   Nice kid, well mannered doesn't mean anything. Either you are or you aren't that guy. He's not.
    • He has the tools from what I saw and I saw him a couple times very up close. Height, scramble ability, strong accurate arm and a tough guy. One of his issues is the absolute poo team around him. The Jags seem to allow some good players around him to leave. They blew their wad with him financially and now either can't or won't spend much more. He could potentially be a monster on a better team.  Nice guy as well. Extremely mannerly even to a foe who stands on the opposite sidelines of him. He is a good guy I would love to see succeed and it says a lot coming from me as I was brought up a rival to his college and we all saw him as the enemy but what a hell of a good dude besides his poor choice in university. He has not lived up to expectations at all but I don't feel like it is a lack of tools. From what I could see first hand, he has all the tools including the mental but a lack of talent around him I think does hurt and there's just something more I can't place holding him back. He had the one solid year and then struggled since and I'm not all the way sure but his tools look amazing on the field.
