Fournette diving over pile - Stop it?

I am really surprised to see him do this as much as he is. It is a dangerous play and he seems to be doing it when he has better options. I think he tried to do it from the 3 yard line in the first quarter.
Does anyone else hope that we use whatever tape we have for highlights and never see it again?

it is a pretty common play I don't think its that dangerous.

I hate it when he jumps over the pile and scores a TD.

What do you propose he do?? Tell me and I'll let him know..

I'm surprised Coach Miles hasn't benched him yet for it, it's just so dangerous

When it's the scoring play against an opponent to seal the victory I bet you won't mind.

I really only like it on the goal line. Not a fan of anyone leaving their feet like that. You just really subject yourself to a lot of freak accidents coming back down.

Every play is dangerous. IMO

I dont have an issue with it. You can get injured on any type of play, Fournette has the drive to get the ball IN THE ENDZONE. He will do it any way he sees fit.

I know, right?! I hate when he scores TDs like that!

I understand that and I agree. But that's not what I said.

You sound like a huge bitch right now

It's a powerful play on the goal line, but I agree maybe sometimes they could do the play action pass to TE (like Ole Miss last year) or do the quick flip toss sweep wide....
Or the option run by Harris like yesterday.
