Why? Why the frick do you even consider doing it? Especially considering you see it done damn near every week.

If I was Arizona, I'd cut his arse immediately and tell him to exit the stadium.

My god you dumb arse fricking NFL players.

Demarcado in Arizona.

Dude had a walk in TD and he starts jogging at the 10 yardline, then proceeds to toss the ball before he crosses the goal line.

Nah, had him on a fantasy team. Nonetheless, it infuriates me regardless.

The action by itself is ridiculously stupid. But the fact that it occurs so often and these dumbass players STILL do it is even more ridiculous.

I noticed a trend with these guys dropping the ball too early. Seems like very similar type players do this.

Still stupid, but I think he controls it when it hits the paint.

It’s even the premise for the new Chad Powers show. It’s ridiculous.

Do flips, twerk, whatever, just make damn sure you are over the goal line.

It somehow is taunting to the guy chasing them, in their heads, but in all reality, it is total stupidity.


I cant imagine how embarrassing that must be. Or should be. Players these days dont seem to mind making a total dumbass out of themselves

this is the main reason I’m okay with the ball going out the back of the end zone being an auto turnover. That deserves it.

Because their culture loves/promotes obnoxious showboating.

It's stupid but the average IQ of an NFL RB is probably below 90. I actually think the Cardinals guy broke the line with the ball and immediately dropped it so it should of been a TD but still stupid regardless.

I think it’s a culture thing about taunting and I think at this point there are so many people saying, this is stupid, WTF are you doing, that they think it could never be me and more and more want to do it. And of course: FAIL
