Stampede Blue on Laquon Treadwell
From the article
Daniel Jones threw a beautiful ball to Laquon Treadwell who was tackled at the Chiefs' 17-yard line. What followed can only be described as chaos. A catch, followed by a punch out made a late game go even longer as a review was needed to determine if the defender was still making contact with Treadwell when he went down. Somehow, it was ruled down by contact, and the Colts maintained possession.
STACKED’s take
Treadwell's controversial down-by-contact catch set up a goal-line opportunity the Colts squandered.
Treadwell caught a pass near the Chiefs' 17-yard line in overtime that was ruled down by contact after a punch-out attempt by the defender, giving the Colts possession in a critical scoring position. The source notes the ruling was controversial, stating 'The argument could easily be made that Laquon Treadwell fumbled that ball. The ruling was a fumble and clear and obvious evidence didn't seem to be present.' Despite receiving this opportunity at the goal line, the Colts' subsequent conservative play-calling (two runs in the wrong direction and a quarterback scramble) failed to capitalize on the gift, ultimately leading to a fourth-and-eight incompletion and a 0-2 start.
