Can We Discuss Goodson Fumble Please

The hand isnt a part of the body, but the forearm is

So if the back of the hand touch the ground, its a fumble. But a lil higher on the forearm it isnt

Do they sit and actually think about these rules. Zod I hope this doesnt happen in a crucial game this season and it stays like that

Take this for what it's worth

As for the challenge by Coach Coughlin, a player in possession of the ball is considered to be down when any part of his body other than his hands or feet touch the ground. As the only part of the Carolina runner that touched the ground was his hand, he was considered still “up” and therefore he fumbled a live ball. This is the one exception to the rule that the “ground can not cause a fumble.”

So let’s take a hypothetical … DeAngelo takes a handoff from Jake and sprints around right end. The LB comes up and hits him low, knocking him off balance. DW manages to get his left hand down to regain his balance and takes 82 yards for an apparent TD.

Who's going to stand up yelling at the top of their lungs “BRING IT BACK, HIS HAND WAS DOWN !!!” ?

There are some fans who still don’t understand the rule on Smitty’s non-catch from the Dallas game a couple years ago even though, I believe it was Mike Carey, so eloquently explained the review.

Ridiculous
And yet, there it is.

Be glad this didn't happen to us during a regular season game.

Then again, we're facing the Cowboys this season and for whatever reason, there is always crap calls like that (not calling pass interference, roughing the kicker, complete pass that wasn't a pass).

Smith's 74-yard td against the texans in 07 is a good example of a play along the lines of what you are describing.

I have no problem with the call as it was made. The back of his hand, maybe the wrist hit the ground and nothing else was touching the ground except his foot. It was a fumble... maybe he'll learn to hold the ball close to his body and just fall, then if his shoulder hits first and the ball comes out, he's down.

Not necessarily (as I previously re: the Smitty play). A receiver has to maintain possession of the ball throughout the play.

The middle of the field is no different than the sideline where a receiver must have clear and firm possession of the ball before going out of bounds.

    • If he was a vet or had 3 years of full playing time in college, it would be different, I'd lean more on the side of caution.  But this is someone who now over the last 4 years, has really only played in games for one of them as he had 51 combined carries his first two years in college. If he wants to reach his potential, he needs reps and he needs them this year, he can't miss another year without meaningful game snaps. The knee is structurally sound at this point being a year out from injury and today's tech/rehab capabilities.  Sure his lack of game shape could lead to pulled muscles or something, but it's not going to put him at risk of a more serious injury to give him 10-15 carries right out of the gate. Also, we need see what he's got, to know if he's going to be able to handle a 3 down role next year before the offseason.  Because if he can, then we shouldn't be re-signing Hubbard as he's earned a decent contract from someone next year.   We can't give that out to a guy who will end up being a backup to someone on a rookie deal, it's a place we can save money to spend elsewhere for a few years, as we could get a much cheaper backup option in free agency or even draft someone else in like the 5th round to be his backup and really save money at the position. 
    • Imagine if we have a defensive draft next year that's just as good...
