I have a question here. When the "tuck rule" is called, something is interpereted as a pass instead of a fumble. The ball went backwards, straight down at best. Even if it is part of the "throwing motion" it is STILL a fumble. It has to go FORWARD to be an incomplete pass REGARDLESS of the interpretation of the tuck rule.
