Maybe a rule of making it a spot foul only inside of 2 or 5 minutes of the end of each half?
However, even so, here's where the problem is, as I've mentioned:
It's the Super Bowl and one team starts on their own 1 yard line and they're down 2 or 3. They run a play action and the receiver has the DB beat. Say the clock is at 2:10 while the ball is in the air and the receiver has a step on the corner, and it was Josh Allen throwing his 70-yard deep ball down to the other team's 38. Instead of letting himself get beat, the corner just dives at the receivers legs and takes him out. It was outside of 2 minutes, so not a spot foul and the defense had been so stout (besides for that one play) that they stop the offense from gaining anymore yards and getting into field goal range.
You just gave the other team the game over a cheap play that takes advantage of a bogus rule. That's NOT football.
