Worst rule in football won’t change until it affects a championship game

Don't agree, if you aren't happy with the rule don't fumble through the end zone.

No reason for Tommy Lee 2 yards to lunge there, he nearly lost us the game and frankly I don't understand why he has a roster spot. Literally brings nothing to the team.

+100

and SP needs stop trying to outdo the opposition when we get caught on a trick play. TLL should have never been on the field, let alone have his hands on the ball there

Couldn't agree with this more - there's a reason why Tommylee never sees the field; because of fearful small-market media, Payton won't receive the criticism that he should...

All those playmakers and you want to get cute and try to show how smart you are and you put it in a guy's hands who are cold?

Smartest moves were made two off-seasons ago when we hired Mike Nolan, Ryan Nielsen and finally got a front-seven put together - that defense and Cam Newton won that game...

As far as the rule, it's not a stupid rule - why should the defense not be rewarded when they make an outstanding stop or an offensive player is foolish with the ball?

We're not the Minnesota Vikings - we do not need to change the rules because we can't own up to our own bone-headed plays...
