Rule Question


Two seasons ago, we were on defense and cornered a QB on the rush.

The QB made a cut back that forced him to put his hand on the ground.

We thought he was down and stopped but the play continued on for a big gain.

 

Was told at the time it was a new rule allowed.

Had a conversation today about it and thought maybe it shouldn't be a allowed because all it takes is a low, fast cutback as the rusher or any defensive player, reach down for the flag and wham! a head to the chin, mouth or nose.

 

What say you TBFFA?

There is no more hand down man down.

Theres a million ways for someone to potentially be hurt playing. Ive seen bently break his arm diving for a catch.

Lets leave it as close to football as we can

Hands down rule? With my arm length I sometimes touch the ground without even knowing. This is discrimination!!
