NFL can’t keep rewarding defenses for doing nothing

When the attack fems a ball into the end zone, the defense wins the ball on the 20-yard line as the ball breaks out of the boundary from the sideline or back of the end zone.

What is GameChangers?

You've heard the judge explain the phone, but you've heard this have been told to yourself, to others, or both.

“That's a very stupid rule.”

You've seen the game and you've said this to yourself, others, or both:

“Why don't they change that?”

We all follow sports. They also know when rules need to be changed and when league policies require an overhaul. So let's do that.

Today we're opening a five-day series with a post that argues about which rules our writers need to change, what those changes should be, and why. In addition to working on the NFL, NHL, NBA, WNBA and MLB, he also dabbles in college sports, golf and soccer. There are no stones turned over – and the stupid rules will not remain the same.

Some of our suggestions are minor. Some of them are major. Some of them are completely radical.

Welcome to GameChangers with your post.

Why do you get such a reward when it really didn't do anything? Fumbles are not forced in most cases. This rule works mostly when an offensive player expands the ball, reaches the end zone and loses control of the ball.
