Official Week 4 NFL Thread: Refs are DUMB and other obvious observations

No, plenty of times the ball is caught beyond the back of the endzone, or outside the side boundary of the endzone, ball never being possessed in the endzone, but it's the feet in that matter. For instance if a player jumps at the goal line but the ball passes outside the pylon, it is not a touchdown. But if the ball is caught falling out of bounds in the endzone it's the feet that matter. I understand the rules, it's just that different things matter at different times.

No. The same thing matters every time. The ball has to be partially or fully across the goal line while possessed by someone who had two feet in the field of play.

This is where the concept of the "infinite" goal line comes into play.

Then why is it not a touchdown if both feet are inbounds but the ball crosses past the goal line outside the pylon? And why is that different than having both feet in bounds in the endzone but the ball being caught outside the boundary line?
 
Ph, the contrarian, defends mega-league's bizarre rules. I love internets.
 
Still can't believe starting on first and goal inside the 10 with Brandon Weeden and no Dez Bryant, Garrett called for two fades and whatever the fuck the third down pass call that ended in a long sack was. Him and Rivera are in a constant battle to see who can coach more moronically and then recover to do just enough to save their job
 
I read the rule. Apparently an airborne player is treated differently than a player with two feet on the ground. In the latter the goal line is extended out of bounds, in the former it is not and the ball must pass the goal line in bounds.
 
That shouldn't have been overturned. These refs are having a nightmare.
 
Who decided "using the ball as a prop" was such an egregious act?
