Agreed. When I saw that last nite several of us were like WTF. That doesn't seem right at all.

Agreed .......... that was costly and degrading as a player to make a play.

And the kicking team must recovery the balled behind the LOS unless the receiving team touches it first and unless possession of the ball had been established prior to the kicking team recovering the ball.

Completely agree!
Unless the receiving team shows possession of the ball, how can that even be close to a turnover. It's a BS rule that drastically altered the course of last nights game.

I didnt even get upset over the play. Which is odd. But the fact remains is Ross touched the ball regardless if it was blocked or not. Would be the same as a punt and it is touched by a chief player and SD recovered.
Every coach who has ever coached football knows that you stay away from a blocked punt or a punt that is not fielded... Looks like Ross isnt coached very well to me. |

I think you can even apply the touch rule as it is now, but if they don't get a first down, then the ball is turned over on downs. It's the common-sense solution, which wasn't applied last night and cost us a playoff spot.

Dumbest Rule in the NFL.
Regardless of touching, the Chiefs didn't establish possession and fumble, and beyond that, Sandy Eggo Never crossed the first down marker. Ridiculous. As for blaming Ross.....idiotic. He had a ball bounce in front of him and tried to make a play....I can't imagine that wasn't the instinct of every player on the field in that spot. If he catches that and runs it in, you're sucking his baows today. If the punt is blocked, this rule is stupid. If the punt is downfield and the ball touches the gunner or something, it makes sense. |

That should have been the ruling in the play last night. Enough yards wasn't gained for a first down, should have been turned over on downs... And what the hell is a football move defined as???

It's NOT the same as a punt because it's already BEEN TOUCHED by a receiving team player. You just couldn't resist taking a shot at the coaching staff could you? |

They should change the rule completely to where possesion has to be established by the receiving team on a punt before they can turn the ball over. What purpose do muffs and what happened yesterday serve other than another stupid turnover and momentum change that the team that just got stopped doesn't deserve?
