Tuck rule changing

Whoa: Tuck Rule is changing. If the passer loses control going forward it's still INC. If he loses ball while tucking, it's a fumble.

Tuck rule was one of the dumbest rules for any sport I have ever seen. It's one of the reasons I slowed interest in the NFL and their ridiculous subjective calls that always allowed for refs to call penalties on any play if they wanted which controlled the games and outcome.

Glad they are changing this. Now please make pass interference a 15 yard penalty like it is in college.

They should go further and get rid of all the rules that assume intent. This includes the empty hand and grounding either to avoid a sack or kill the clock. I would keep the ball alive as long as it's behind the line of scrimmage and have a linesman who determines when it crosses. That way all you have to determine is the line and it keeps things interesting.
