Although he re-possesses it, it does contact the ground when he reaches so the repossession is irrelevant because it was ruled an incomplete pass when he had the ball hit the ground."

Whine about the rule, not the call.
The rule is fine, if he didn't make a football move. He made a football move. He took three steps. THREE. Then lunged for the endzone. That's two football moves, which negates that rule. The referee's botched this call badly and cost us a shot at the NFC Championship.
