One quick question, if the ground can't cause a fumble,


Sep 6, 2013, 2:01 PM

how can it cause an incomplete pass? I have seen several replays where the receiver had control of the ball but pops out when he hits the ground and is therefore an incomplete pass.

Just the way the rule is.


Sep 6, 2013, 2:05 PM

Probably that way because it leaves the door open for tough judgment calls for the officials. Did he really have control? At what point was the ball secure?, etc.

a foul on Booker

"I've been working since I was 15 continually until now. I worked 40 hours a week at 15, when it wasn't even legal for 15 year olds to work that many hours."


The key is did he have posession prior to ground contact

If he did, then play over; If he didn't then incomplete.

I thought same thing. When Bryant caught the long pass


Sep 6, 2013, 2:27 PM

and then dropped it he had possession and the ball was jarred lose when he hit the ground. Thought that should have been a catch.

I wish the ground could cause a fumble. I also wish that


Sep 6, 2013, 2:29 PM

any ball behind the los was a fumble, even if the QB threw it 99 yards for it to get there.
