That was not a safety and shouldn't have IMO.

his forward progress was stopped in the end zone

forward progress is a rule that is only used to help out offensive players

The ball isn't "dead" though. It's still moving.


So in your theory, you want the punting team to be able to knock the ball back to the one yard line every time? and let it come to rest there?

Or are you saying that you want the ball to be touched at the one with a finger tip and then bounce out of the back of the endzone but its ok because he downed it at the one with his finger?
