Odd hx of that rule in the NFL. Originally it was only in the case of doubt as to whether the ball was in the end zone that the player's touching the ground in the end zone was to resolve the matter. However, officials must have been instructed to apply it in all cases, even where the ball clearly was still in the field of play, because that's what they were doing for years before they finally changed the rule.
Why do rules making bodies do crap like that?
