Intentional grounding question
Posted on 10/27/14 at 10:25 pm

can a QB just huck a ball off a defender's chest or legs to avoid intentional grounding?
I would think that if it hits a defender then there wouldn't be a penalty but wasn't sure if there was a provision for that situation.

i'd imagine the receiver would have to be in the area

It would still be intentional grounding. Has to be close to an eligible receiver.

Interesting question, but it is pretty much impossible for a defender not to be close to an offensive player since their job is to defend those players.
Not to mention, a QB would never assume they would drop it.

Intentional grounding will be called when a passer, facing an imminent loss of yardage due to pressure from the defense, throws a forward pass without a realistic chance of completion.
It's a judgement call.

Are you suggesting that the QB should throw the ball AT a defender on purpose?

I think he's suggesting that he should throw it right in the facemask or chest of a defensive tackle to avoid a sack.
Not just underhand it to him.

Ask him if he's suffered a head injury. I dare you.

So you want to intentionally throw it at someone? This is not baseball.

What was with the tapping of their heads by Romo, Dooley, & company?

on that play by Romo, you could throw it right off his legs and be fine.
Notice I didn't say 12 yards downfield into his fricking hands?
Posted on 10/27/14 at 10:28 pm to LfcSU3520
was an eligible offense player in the area?
Posted on 10/27/14 at 10:29 pm to LfcSU3520
if you are georgia, you can throw it off a defender with an eligible receiver in the area and still get called for intentional grounding

You looking for new sports to serve up homeruns?
Posted on 10/27/14 at 10:30 pm to TigerintheNO
I don't know. I mean like there's a rusher coming at you, no options so just throw it off his nuts. Just like it got batted away at the line.
I get it sounds weird, but just wondering if it's allowed when you wouldn't see where the ball was actually headed if it got downfield

I've been meaning to tell you on FB that you've gotten fat.

I think if you wound up and gunned it right at a guys helmet that you could make a case for it.
Anything below the shoulders and they will call it grounding.
