Makes the Jets assistant look like a wuss.

Small price to pay for a 15 yard penalty.

BTW, those guys ran at least a 6 in the 40yd.

the refs gave him a touchdown.

dumbass might have allowed his teammates a chance to catch him for the tackle, as they were closing and still 40 yards out.

I wonder how they would handle that today? Touchdown? Judgment call?

I saw it happen in a high school game, they called a TD.

BTW, bama fans still celebrate this play.

Wow, what an asshole move.

If that was only a 15 yard penalty it would happen every game.

I like how he runs back to the bench and sits down and tries to pretend like nothing happened. Even though it was clear everyone, including a ref yelling at him saw it.
