Many people still think the ball hit the ground on Harris
I think they are just sour grapes


A lot of folks also thought the ball hit the Steelers receiver rather than the Raiders defender before it bounced back to Harris. At the time that would have made it an illegal catch. If a forward pass hit an offensive player it had to be touched by a defensive player before a different offensive player was eligible to catch it.
