Number of steps doesn't matter. He was in the process of making the catch and falling down. Once the ball hit the ground it's a no catch. Now if he had made the catch and made a deliberate stretch and reach toward the goal line it would be different and the point could be made that he was lunging for more yards. That's the big question with this call.
