Deacon Frost Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Both Jeff Garcia and Eli Manning had 10 yds rushing today before kneeling 3 times at the end in the victory formation to end up with 7 yards. CBS Sportsline has them as "real" rushes counting as -1 yards per rush against the individual. What's the official NFL stance on these? I know they don't count sacks against a QB's rushing stats, so.....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been bit by the kneel down resulting in a loss for me before (as have others, of course). Edited December 11, 2006 by Gunther Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
