I don't understand how a pro player can stand right next to a ball that's rolling to stop on the ground and just ignore it. If you don't hear a whistle, pick it up, of course. But even if you think you've heard a whistle, pick it up anyway just to make sure - you're right there! That's what I would do. I'm not talking about if the ball is 15 yards away and you have to hustle past a bunch of guys, I understand doing that after every play just to be sure would be impractical. I mean if the ball is right next to you anyway, like in some of these clips, you might as well just bend over and pick the thing up. What's the worst that could happen?

“Down” rules are so dumb in the NFL. You shouldn’t have to be touched. If you go down, you should be down.

@MissionMan Ай бұрын

No way. The NFL is far better than college football in part because you have to be touched down. If you fall down and you burned the defense so badly that they can't even catch up to you to touch you, you deserve to keep going. You can "give yourself up" now, though. If you intentionally go down in-bounds to keep the clock running, for example. The spike here would probably be considered giving yourself up now as he "made no effort to advance the ball" after getting back up.
