It was a gift, Rots--burger, who I like as a player, was downed in the playing field and he later pushed the ball over like a guilty schoolboy.

The rule needs to be changed so the whole ball crosses the plane and is downed within the end-zone, and in possession of the player. These bad called half/asssed cheap touchdowns are ruining the game.

The ball had already crossed the plane before he hit the ground. He did push it over the line after he was down but it did not matter by then because he had already scored the touchdown.

The ref saw it that way on his first call and again in the replay and you will see it also if you have the ability to view it frame by frame.

Yeah that is the idea, your team loses so now we need to change the rules. That is what Al Gore would recommend also.
