I hate "down by contact". I'm not the only one.

"I kind of like that, get back to where a fumble is a fumble," Madden said. "I mean, someone has the ball, and if they get hit and they fumble it's a doggone fumble. Now, every time there's a fumble, we have to look. Is the elbow down? Is the knee down? Is the foot? You know, all those types of things, instead of it just being a fumble."

On the flipside, except for a forward pass, I don't think that defensive players should be allowed to "strip" the ball That should be unsportsman-like conduct. It's one thing to get a solid hit on a guy and send the ball flying but it's downright ugly to see the defense reach in with both hands tying to delivery the baby.

I was wrong about there being no "individual displays of exception skill".
