So does that mean tucks are fumbles again? All empty hand passes are fumbles? Shot put empty hand passes are passes or fumbles?

Did I expect anything less from Kraft? NO.

And of course New England abstains.

Finally. If the QB doesn't throw the ball, and he brings it back to his body, he's carrying it.

Brilliant. When a ball carriers drops the ball it's a fumble.

Title should read, " motion to end/eliminate Tuck Rule" passes.

Which owner had the cajones to vote against it?

 

[dbg]

Steelers voted against.

New England abstained and the Redskins, who were represented by former Raiders executive Bruce Allen at the voting table, also abstained.

1. Tucks are now fumbles
2. Empty hand "passes" have always been fumbles.

well forward moving hand was a "pass" so if the ball is hit when the hand moves forward i is a "pass".. so to me, any pass that isnt released by the qb.. including the balls that come out atthe end ofthe motion and go straight to the groundshould be a fumble.. guess tht is what i was getting at with the shot put passesyea sorry for poor grammar and spelling.. cellphone posting.
