I definitely thought that was a fumble. If you watch his hand there's no follow through motion. He wasn't trying to throw that ball he just lost it. But every rule is bent as much as they can to protect QBs.

He intentionally put the ball into the ground to avoid a sack.  In spirit he’s guilty.

Only change I can think of as any forward pass that is untouched and hits the ground before the line of scrimmage is a live ball.  If it’s recovered by the other team it’s ruled as a lost fumble.

Too many screen passes that would create fumbles for, which no team is going to like the idea of and to vote in favor for to stop something like this happening.  

I can't remember the last time I've seen a play and just said it's not right that it should be called that way, think it's just going to be one of those one off weird things that there is no fix for.
