re: An NFL rule that I think is nonsense - forward progress to a receiver

I see no reason why a WR should be given the benefit of forward progress before contact like this. It's a dumb rule and we have enough rules that benefit the offense

I feel like you can't/shouldn't have this opinion and also be ok with the ball just having to "touch" the goal line for a TD. The play has to end with the ball either touching it or across the line.

As long as you also agree with that, you're at least consistent even if I don't like either of those rules.
