i can't understand these officials

[ChuckLazar]

I have Denver on my survivor pool pick and I would say I'm glad to be on the side of the Refs this time!!

[ChiefsFAN]

and I still hate the TUCK rule, so obvious he wasn't trying to throw the ball, I don't understand how that rule is still there after what happened against oakland in New England.

I agree. I hate the tuck rule.

[RFC]

It's a stupid rule. If it is not determined to be a forward pass then it should be a live ball. The thrower simply lost control of the ball and that is a fumble.

And what if the QB does not tuck the ball, is he protected against it ever being called a fumble because he went through a throwing motion like a pump fake? What if he is rolling out, does a pump fake and never tucks? Is there an exception to the rule for that situation?
