Is it time to change a rule in football
Is it time to change the whistle rule. In the Pro's this year it burned the Bengals aganist the Jets and in this game. If they are going to say it is a fumble why does it matter that the whistle blew. I think it is a time for a change.

That is impossible...players are taught to stop on the whistle. Anything that happens after that playstopping whistle is arguable...late hits, personal fouls, etc

So why does every player go after the ball. Spielman on the radio today said every player should go past the whistle to the echo's of the whistle.

If a ball is on the ground every player is taught to get on it...I meant that action after a play (contact, blocks, etc) is taught to cease after the whistle. Its a whole new can of worms if that rule is removed

Well say there can't be any returns. If it is fumble it should change hands. Really what is the point of replay if things like this can't be changed.

huh? If the whistle blows, you stop. How many times have you seen a player get called for a late hit when he doesn't?

I am just saying what Spielman said on the Radio this morning. No one ever stops if the ball is on the ground.

I could see where the rule works with forward progress but, when that does not even come into play why are refs blowing there whistles so soon.

I give you forward progress, but most of time it not even close to play like that.

I think they should outlaw the holding penalty. Imagine how good our O-line could be??

These offical need to put there whistles in their pockets. another early whistle. It's just poor. These refs are [censored]ing shirt poor and replay has no clue. You blow the whistle at the last resort.

The rule is not the problem. It's the "quick whistle" that's the problem. People still bitch about how long it took to make the PI call in the NC game. Fact is. The guy made the right call. If that arrogant [censored]wad would have taken the time to think [censored] through, rather than pointing first down Wisky, the momentum could've gone our way. Not that we deserved a win today, but damn dude. Think [censored] through BEFORE you make the call.
