My dad has survived all the way up to this week... in which he has SEA. If people could txt from death row I think it would be more upbeat and happy.

If he is all ready on the ground rolling then as soon as he is touched isnt he down?

Edit: nmmmm
This did not happen, but if you only punched the ball would that still be down? Is the ball part of the runner?

This was my question as well. I believe in that situation it would be a fumble.

Interesting development at Lambeau: Even if it was the ball that was touched first (and knocked loose), the receiver is considered touched down and play over?

So that's just an obvious case of a head coach not knowing the rules of NFL football, and losing an important challenge and time-out as a result.

I'd imagine in this unlikely scenario, it would be a fumble.  
 
Caldwell with a wasted challenge/TO even after the ref tried to explain the rule to him.  Tough to watch.

Man, I could not have been more wrong about Atlanta.  I've seen a lot of them over the past month, and I thought they had a legit chance of winning in a blowout today and winning a wildcard game too.
