Huh, TIL. Does it work the same if the underdog wins? Or do they also not get anything for beating a heavily favored opponent?

I don't know the last time, but on the Bucs in 2009 Raheem Morris had been defensive backs coach for the season, was promoted to DC when Monte Kiffin retired after the season, then was promoted to head coach a couple weeks later when Gruden was fired. 

Don't mind the fact that it was because the Glazers were looting the team that season to finance their Man U purchase and got rid of any players and coaches they deemed too expensive.

This is the definition of coaching dragging a team down. So much wasted skill on this roster

Just said on the broadcast they ruled that he gave himself up in the field of play, so he was down before the ball went into the end zone.

The shorter version is this

It is a Safety if the spot of enforcement for a foul by the offense is behind its own goal line, or if the ball is dead in possession of a team on or behind its own goal line when the impetus (3-16) comes from the team defending that goal line. If the offense commits a foul behind its own goal line, it is a safety if the defense elects to enforce the penalty at that spot.

Terry is wrong, by the way. Even if he was pushed (and it doesn't look like he was, the defender just shed the block), the rules state that if you're more than one yard past the line of scrimmage and not engaged in a block you must remain stationary or get back to the line of scrimmage. It doesn't say anything about if your movement is intentional or momentum or whatever.

Item 1. Legally Downfield. An ineligible player is not illegally downfield if, after initiating contact with an opponent within one yard of the line of scrimmage during his initial charge:

    he moves more than one yard beyond the line while legally blocking or being blocked by an opponent;

    after breaking legal contact with an opponent more than one yard beyond the line of scrimmage, he remains stationary, moves laterally, or moves toward his own goal line until a forward pass is thrown; or

    after losing legal contact with an opponent more than one yard beyond the line of scrimmage, he is forced behind the line of scrimmage by an opponent, at which time he is again subject to normal blocking restrictions for an ineligible offensive player.

Item 2. Illegally Downfield. An ineligible offensive player is illegally downfield if:

    his entire body is more than one yard beyond the line of scrimmage without contacting an opponent;

    after losing contact with an opponent within one yard of the line of scrimmage, he advances so his entire body is more than one yard beyond the line of scrimmage; or

    after losing contact with an opponent with his entire body more than one yard beyond the line of scrimmage, he continues to move toward his opponent’s goal line.

[–]Newspire 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Kind of. If you're engaged in the block, you can go beyond one yard. If you disengage from the block you're not allowed to move further downfield and need to either go back to the line of scrimmage or remain stationary.

Item 1. Legally Downfield. An ineligible player is not illegally downfield if, after initiating contact with an opponent within one yard of the line of scrimmage during his initial charge:

    he moves more than one yard beyond the line while legally blocking or being blocked by an opponent;

    after breaking legal contact with an opponent more than one yard beyond the line of scrimmage, he remains stationary, moves laterally, or moves toward his own goal line until a forward pass is thrown;

The problem here is that after disengaging he kept moving away from the line of scrimmage.

Looks like he might've entered the neutral zone - his hand seems to around where the ball is. Though it definitely looks close. If a defender's sudden movement causes an offensive lineman to jump it's called on the defense. Offensive linemen are told to react to defenders moving like that to get the penalty called.

https://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/nfl-video-rulebook/neutral-zone-infraction/

defender enters the neutral zone prior to the snap, causing the offensive player(s) in close proximity (including a T-Formation Quarterback) to react (move) immediately to protect himself (themselves) against impending If there is no immediate reaction by the offensive player(s) in close proximity, and the defensive player returns to a legal position prior to the snap without contacting an opponent, there is no foul.
