Jackson took a step further up the idiot ladder by diving from the 6 and landing well short of the endzone. At this point, I have a hard time even blaming the players. This isn't some new phenomenon. It's been a problem for a while, and somehow coaches haven't been able to curb it. Excessive celebration, showing passion, losing your cool in the heat of battle--all understandable. But for a player(especially on offense) to feel the need to drop the football the millisecond he crosses the goal line, disregarding the potential damages to his team, just because, is grounds for benching. Do that, and we probably won't be having this conversation again in a few years.
