hooknladder Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 spiking the ball in the field of play will be illegal now. apparently the NFL is sick and tired of seeing some fool gain 2yds on 1st and 10 in the 1st quarter and get up and spike the ball like he just won the Superbowl.

Hat Trick Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 I think that is a good rule. +1, now if they'll just get rid of them standing up after making a catch and throwing the referee first down motion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the new rule but I also don't mind when they motion first down after getting a first down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time you see it, look at the player who just did it. It will be a guy with a questionable attitude. Joe Horn, Burress, Shockey, TO, etc. Now, tell me how many times you've seen Rice, Gonzalez, LT or others do it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantherDave Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Hmmm, Smitty does not spike it but he puts the spin on it after a tuff/big catch( ya know throws it to the ground so it spins for awhile). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
