He didn't have control of the ball when both of his feet were touching. Like, it's close, but it seems clear. He only had control after his left foot came up.

I get that "technically" it was the right call. It just doesn't feel right because yea he didn't have control of the ball when both feet were in, but he wrested control while he was still in bounds but he had to avoid a tackle and possible injury had he just planted his feet.

ROFL "worst roughing the passer call ever".
Goddamn, Chiefs fans have become such entitled babies since their first Super Bowl in 50 years. Your franchise is shit, has a whopping 2 Super Bowls and was completely irrelevant for about 4 decades, settle the fuck down.

Show us on the doll where the Chief's fan touched you, lol.
I use to be a Bear's fan, and in general, I'd watch every football game that was on TV for 30+ years until all the racism started. This is the first year I've started watching again and I'm not impressed. Still a Bear's fan but honestly I don't care who wins or loses. The game I grew up watching doesn't exist anymore.
Morbid curiosity, I guess.

Sports media told me the worst roughing the passer call ever happened just yesterday but I guess the refs are always looking to outdo themselves.
In all fairness though if you assembled a list of the five worst RTP calls ever, that call against Jones would be on the list and a contender for the #1 spot.

Been adjusting my homerism as a pats fan. Last few weeks pats have looked...decent. Online has possibly gelled QB coming back from injury hopefully will play better with that. Heck zappe has looked decent as the backup. Defense looks ok.
As too the roughing the passer calls this year, its really bad this year on how tick tacky it has been a massive jump due to tua.
With the upcoming soft schedule, I think they can win The next 6 games....barring injuries no worse than 4-2.

Been a fan since 1989 and been lurking around since the first Avatar of War kill. No one posts here because they don't want to read 20 pages of Niners talk a week.

ROFL they've been calling horseshit RTP for at least a decade and "landing" on the QB has been a thing for at least the past 4-5 years. Do we not remember all the calls on Matthews during 2018ish? The 2013 call against Brooks that potentially cost the Niners homefield advantage? It's a shitty call and you won the fucking game. As ARod would say...RELAX!
Top 5 my fucking ass. It's no worse than any of these and that's just one season..

"A passer who is standing still or fading backward after the ball has left his hand is obviously out of the play and must not be unnecessarily contacted by an opponent through the end of the down or until the passer becomes a blocker, or a runner, or, in the event of a change of possession during the down, until he assumes a distinctly defensive position."
Didn't realize Carr had assumed a distinctly defensive position, my bad!

As the ball carrier Jones did not have two arms free to avoid landing on Carr, making that contact necessary.

It's necessary to carry the ball with BOTH hands? The referees did not agree. Thus making it still within the letter of the rule.
Shitty call? Probably, but RTP calls are bullshit like 95% of the time anyhow. Don't like it? Have the league change the rules, which is what they've needed to do for at least a decade. The fact that 10+ years later is STILL isn't reviewable after all the horrible calls says a lot. Suddenly it "hurts" the darlings of the NFL in the Chiefs(because a good, part-time nog QB finally exists), in a game they still won, and it's a contender for the #1 worst RTP call of all-time? ROFL.
