After wathcing the replay, he lost posession of the ball before his hand moved forward. It's the empty hand rule or whatever it's called. In that case it is a fumble.
The difference between that call and the earlier one is that Warner was already moving the ball forward when he lost it...so...incomplete pass.
I feel strongly that if it was reviewed, it would have been a fumble...but they probably should have reviewed it (I am guessing they did but decided quikcly it was a fumble).
All in all, I can't believe the Steelers won. I thought for sure it was over when Larry scored his second TD.
I'm glad for Santonio Holmes. He hit a low point earlier this year but turned things around and really proved how great of a WR he can and will be.
