    what stops a runner from "fumbling" forwards to a teammate when they're about to be tackled? might as well get rid of the forward lateral rule at that point.

    edit: A fumbled ball may be recovered and advanced by either team (except, in American football, after the two-minute warning in either half or 4th down, when the fumbling player is the only offensive player allowed to advance the ball, otherwise the ball is ruled dead at the spot of recovery if the ball bounces backwards or spotted at the point of the fumble if the ball travels forward).

    bs rule, needs to be applied to more than just the last 2 min and 4th downs.

    You can't intentionally fumble the ball forward, iirc.

    Brock should have just rolled the ball on the ground like a bowling ball last season to get first downs

    Foreman goofed. Not good enough to get involved in protests, lost his job to Blue

    The rookie walked out on the team, I would doubt it. Guys like Nuk have the pull to get away with that stupidity but not a damn rookie. BOB hates playing them to begin with.

    This game is already ridiculous. Texans getting screwed by random rules.

    For instance. 15 yard penalty on a guy who had no effect on play.
