There needed to be compelling evidence to the contrary. Thanks. I was watching with a group and couldn’t hear the commentary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpactCorey Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 @shaw66 convinced me the rule makes sense with this comment: Quote So a receiver can be standing out of bounds and tip the ball to a teammate inbounds, and that's a catch? That COULD be the rule, but it violates the basic idea that the game is played inside the lines, not outside. Otherwise you get into weird territory of "well where was the ball relative to where the out of bounds player was" stuff and so on and so on. The NFL needs more objective calls and less subjective calls. Everyone remembers the pushing receivers out of bounds days right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
