I can understand why, if you make an exception for that one catch, then coaches will start challenging more often. More plays will become questionable and it will be counter productive to the rule of maintaining possession through the ground.

It sucks for Calvin Johnson, but the rule is the rule and it is there for a reason. If Megatron didn't let the ball come out of his hands then it would have never been questioned.
