It's not an awful rule. If your elbow, knee or butt are on the grounnd when you're touched your down. End of story.

I think that was his point. You’re saying “when you’re touched” but there was no action by the DB to touch him. They touched each other and that’s the rule, but the defense did nothing there and was rewarded for one of their DBs getting kicked by the WR lol

How is Witten gonna blame that on the receiver?  Or am I trippin'?

If he comes towards the ball he isn't in the endzone.

Def wasn't on the receiver, although usually you're supposed to come attack the ball instead of letting it come to you obviously.

awful rule. if YOU touch the defender and go down, it should not be down by contact.

So would you prefer to go back to the days where guys laying on the ground were having people dive at them?  It's a good rule to preserve player safety.  It's not an over protection at all.
