Yes as most of the outstanding votes were clearly favoring Trump and while most modeling suggested Biden would probably win it, Trump still had a decent shot at time called.  You only call a state if almost certain they will win and that point it was still very possible for Trump.  Yes they were right in end, but considering how close it was, wouldn't have had to be too much off for Trump to win it.  Now off course in end wouldn't have mattered as Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin were enough to put Biden over 270 and he won all three of those by bigger margins than Arizona.  Georgia was bigger in raw votes, but smaller in percentage difference.
