I have no issues with 2 feet down and a football move, that is very simple. I never understood 2 feet down, a football move and by the way if you then go to the ground a 4th thing needed, no bobble added so no catch.
I always liked the ground can't cause a fumble so to me this is a lot more consistent with that rule.
When I played HS football in the mid-60s, if a "caught ball" hit the ground it was called "incomplete". Period.
Hells bells, these guys are PROFESSIONALS. If a 17-year-old can play under the rules like I played under, modern professionals ought to be able to play under them as well.
