End Zone celebration

[53Fan]

I think the whole endzone celebration rule is carried a bit too far like most rules in the NFL...including hitting the QB.

Yeah i feel that way 90% of the time... the other 10% JC is getting plastered in the backfield and then I wish there was a "touch-rule" in place for QBs. I'm not very consistent.

... to his credit, which I don't think he's gotten much even around here, JC has stood up tall in the pocket and taken some mother f@ck%ng shots this year. He hasn't bitched, hasn't called out his line. Whether he plays really well or makes too many critical errors in a particular game the kid doesn't back down against the onslaught. That completion he made (forget the receiver) on Sunday when the Eagles blitzed and Jason took a shot, which actually looked helmet to helmet on the replay, was pretty impressive.

Thats another stupid rule. I believe if the QB is going to run he should not be afforded the luxury to slide to avoid a hit. If the QB doesn't want a hit, he either shouldn't run or make sure he gets out of bounds.

and the play shouldn't be blown dead as soon as the quarterback starts falling, though it did keep us from losing a fumble or two this year
