Exactly. It's been a rule forever. It makes total sense why.

I'm fine with the rule. If there's enough impetus to not take the ball away, make it something like a safety. Give the defense 2 points and the offense can get the ball back on their 20.

As far as I'm concerned though, it happens so rarely it would be absolutely stupid to change the rule because of complaints about one game.

Jesus Christ on a twat rocket. I have never heard so much crying over a perfectly reasonable rule that has been that way forever.

Team that fumbled gets the ball at the 20 or back to the original line of scrimmage if the LOS was already outside the 20 with a 10 yard penalty and loss of down.

I think the rule is correct

If they change it to benefit offenses that’s bullshit

If it fumbles out the side of the end zone, the fumbling team gets the ball at the 10. If the ball is fumbled out the back of the end zone, it's a turnover. I think there's a difference...

Did you watch the halftime show on CBS?

Those ****asses were crying whale tears.

My brother mentioned one alternative idea that's less harsh would be to let them keep the ball but back them up to the 25 yard line. Keep the same next "down" that it would have been.

Nothing wrong with it, just don't fumble.

Tell your brother he is an idiot. The rule is fine as it is.

Exactly!

LMAO

The End Zone is sacred territory.

It's a good rule. Nothing wrong with it at all. The endzone isnt like any other part of the field. Dont fumble into the endzone and it's not an issue. It doesnt matter where in the endzone it goes out either.

I love how ChiefsPlanet is suddenly in love with this rule.
