It just misses the pylon by a hair, and its Rams ball on the goal line. Doesn't seem that those 2 outcomes should be separated by a hair.So what happens if you field a kick off at the goal line, bobble the ball, and the receiver loses the ball out of bounds, where it strikes the pylon.Who's ball is it and where?? by HAL 9000 6 years 8 months ago Total posts: 1009 Joined: Jan 20 2016 Jupiter Pro Bowl Gurley' s "Fumble" POST #42 Hacksaw, RamsFanSince82 liked this post dieterbrock wrote:Methinks we should be due for one of these in our favor eh?Hell would have to freeze over before the Rams ever get a call their way.

This rule needs to be changed this year. It should at least go to the five yard line and retain possession, but any other fumble goes to the last team with possession.

Even if it stays a turnover, let the other team take it from the 5 yd line or the point of fumble.Need to rethink that imo...yeah, i was joshin', it's a kick in the nads, it's a broken rule, a loose ball that's not recovered gets awarded to one team but not the other, why? 1 by Elvis 6 years 8 months ago Total posts: 38903 Joined: Mar 28 2015 Los Angeles Administrator Re: Gurley' s "Fumble" POST #48 If the QB drops back to pass from his own end zone and steps out of bounds, it's 2 points for the other team and they get the ball, kind of a steep penalty for stepping out of bounds isn't it?The end zone is special, high risk and high reward. I know i won't complain the next time we get the ball on the 20 when we strip a player going in for an apparent TD...

I could understand if a team fumbles it out of the back of the end zone but out of bounds over the pylon? Or even out the side of the end zone? I guess the way they look at it is, if you do that, you're careless with the ball so it goes over to the other team. Anybody see Newton's run tonight? He was airborn and clearly had the ball across the goal line before anything hit out of bounds but they ruled "no TD". The saying is "the goal line goes around the world". Well if you can put the ball over the pylon or the goal line and it or you never touch in the end zone, how can they award a turnover if you fumble it out of the side?Stupid rule right up there with the tuck.

A player can dive and his body can be over out of bounds but he has to get the ball across the goal line over the pylon or inside it before he touches down for it to be a TD.But if the player is in bounds in the end zone, the ball can cross the goal line out of bounds.There was no angle clear enough on the Cam dive that the ball crossed the goal line. Every replay i saw was at an angle, not shot down the goal line so it wasn't clear...

At least make it like a penalty in the end zone where the fumbling team loses 10 yards from the point of the fumble or something.
