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.

@@aralornwolf3140 Indeed! And I don't know why but it cheeses me off that the whole thing didn't get called back.
I remember when this game happened for the bears. It's b******* cuz Roger's hand was moving forward. But then again I can't count on all my fingers and toes how many times the Bears have been screwed by NFL officials in the last 10 years
The second stupidest thing Plaxico Burress has done.
I hate it when PRO players (of any sport) decide/assume what the umpires/referees think...but I also love it because we get to laugh at them. "Look at me! Look how awesome I am! Er...wait...what? I didn't actually carry the ball in to the end zone? Oh sh**..." I don't even like American football, but still these videos are a great watch.
Play to the whistle
If the first play had been Brady, they would have called it incomplete.
2:16….why was this rule ever changed?
The Saints at the time were very mad about this play because people were coming off and on the field. Essentially, it was a wild card play. The next offseason, the league got rid of it.
@@sijdnsd6460, Basically, they didn't like that no one knew the play was live... so they the league got rid of the play. *Shakes Head*
What’s next ? Double interceptions ?
Great idea!
ikr . I always think it’s crazy when someone intercepts it and it pops into the hands of one of their teamates . It’s just …nuts!
Whatever happened to the Tuck Rule?
On the Rams punt return, did that count because there were clearly Rams players coming onto the field during the play.
Yes it counted because all of us saints fans hate seeing that dumb play lol. It's a reminder of the abysmal games we had to endure for what seemed like an eternity
@@patrickevans9604 seems like you’re not much better off now.
Yes it did count. They changed the rule for the next year that punts into the endzone that were not touched by the receiving team were automatically a touchback.
Play to the whistle, is it that hard to understand that? NFL players should know the rules, it’s inexcusable to give up touchdowns like that🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
What you don't see here are the thousands of times they do it right.
Mistakes happen, it's people, don't pretend you don't make any at your Job.
I mean San Fran doesn't understand overtime rules so it makes sense
get that it was fumbled before the hand/arm came forward to push the ball forward ... but is the offense even allowed to advance a fumble ?
I believe the question is whether or not its intentional. As long as its unintentional, you're probably ok
Only on 1st, 2nd, or 3rd down in the first 28 minutes of a half
i would but they follow,...
I was always told to never stop playing until you hear a whistle for this very reason
2:47 if he didn't spike the ball and just broke out into a run for his endzone, would they have given him it? Pfft, unlikely. Little jank ijs
I thought the NFL rule was the offense can't advance a fumble? Am I wrong? (The infamous Ken Stabler play against the Miami Dolphins.)
The offense can only advance on 1st, 2nd, or 3rd down outside the 2:00 warning

"The Ball Is Live" Moments But the Video Quality Gets Increasingly Worse
At least the Falcons weren’t in any of these.
That last one his arm doesn't matter. The rule has always been forward passes have to be caught to be incomplete. That ball did nothing but go backwards lol
I really think they need to start using common sense on forward psst vrs fumble. If the ball moves forward its likely a forward pass. If it goes backwards it's likely a fumble.
Clete the cheat Blakeman
I can't watch this. Smh
His hand wasn't going forward for a pass. His hand got hit from behind forcing his hand while he was loading up.
You left out Kansas City
What if somebody blows a referee's whistle from the stands? "Play to the whistle" NOT.
THAT gets you *thrown out of the stadium*.
Like. No. There is a zero-tolerance policy for that shit.
Perhaps most of those players thought they were incomplete passes is because the arm was moving forward in all of them. Those were not fumbles.
go to the optometrist.
@@throeawae2130 yeah all those players are blind as well.....whatever. The quarterback was passing and his arm was hit. Just because his arm was hit, does'nt mean its a fumble. He is in the motion of throwing the ball. This is not a player just dropping the ball as in a fumble.
Doesn't matter if the arm was going forwards; if the ball was jarred loose and the QB is no longer in control of it before he started moving his arm forward then it's a fumble all day.
Marvin Harrison’s?
Tuck game still hurts as a raider fan. Cheated.
Shit tube now requires me to sign in or agree to be tracked through history or I can't view any videos. 😕
It is interesting isn't it? These players make more in a single game than many Americans make in a year. But they can't be bothered to go get the ball.
But the only person on offense who can advance a fumble is the person who fumbled the ball in the 1st place.
Um...no. Section 7, Article III, Item 1 of the NFL rules: "Item 1. Recovery and Advance. Any player of either team may recover or catch a fumble and advance, either before or after the ball strikes the ground, unless the fumble occurs on fourth down (See 8-7-5 below) or after the two-minute warning (See 8-7-6 below)."
Filmed through vaseline.
Can someone explain to a non american what makes a ball live or not after it has been dropped?
2:50, Burress was more concerned with clowning than winning.
Ha! Get rid of the tuck rule to make some whiny Raiders fans happy? Live with the consequences.
Rule 1 - play the whistle. I was taught that aged 10.
The worst one is the receiver that celebrated by spiking the ball. Your job is to catch the pass. You celebrate because you did your job?
“Down” rules are so dumb in the NFL. You shouldn’t have to be touched. If you go down, you should be down.
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.
i thought only the fumbling player could advance the ball
Only on 4th down
