Down by contact -- pretty clear

OK, Whinerton fans. If they don't call this down by contact I'll submit the game is being called badly.

I don't claim to know the rules on this one but it looks like he was already slipping down when he was touched. Does this count for down by contact or does the contact have to cause the player to fall? If the answer is no. he was not down when touched and the fumble is a good call.
