Yeah, what does 3 of #3 even mean? The ability to perform such an act?
I guess if a player catches the ball and just stands there? Technically they wouldn't have done 1 or 2 at that point. So they needed something to cover it.

I'd think even if a player did that anyone with common sense would say he had control so the 1st rule should cover it

You have to meet all 3 criteria. Control, 2 feet and then something out of the third category.

Yea, should have explained myself better. I'm saying having control and 2 feet or body part should be it. Having to make a football move still gives way too much leeway for ridiculous calls/reversals
