Caught passes, then ruled out of bounds at point of catch.

Just me, or are others getting these. Always seems to be on important completion.

I know it's misleading to see the catch line first, but it does happen often in games on sideline passes.

It might be nice to amend the line to read, "Pass is caught by Randy Moss at the MIN 33, but he might have been out of bounds." Or something like that.

Then the next line would tell us whether he made the catch in bounds or not.

good idea.. also maybe it could say .. pass caught but the play is being reviewed to see if he had both feet inbounds.

or maybe just show on the dynasty vision field where on the field he caught the ball instead of always having it in the middle

what is bad is seeing the little football icon show the middle of the field, see the screen say the pass is caught and then say the receiver was out of bounds and no catch.. thats an issue too

"Ruled out of bounds" occurs more often when the sideline pass strategy is explicitly chosen. I do intentionally put the "caught" message in there first to replicate the feel of watching a game and seeing a catch you think is good just to have it ruled out of bounds.

I think it feels like they happen on more important catches because it's more common in the two-minute drill, where every catch has more at stake.
