Second foot has to be down for it to be a catch
But we hear so often that the instant the ball crosses the plane, it is a TD. Doesn't matter if he drops it a split second after, doesn't matter if it is stripped. The receiver clearly had posession, his foot hit the pilon, which is in bounds, so when he crossed the plane he was in bounds and demonstrated control.
