Don't act like "middle school or grade school" and there won't be a problem.
All the proposed change does is change the spot of enforcement; not the definition. Currently, if a live ball foul occurs behind the play it's enforced from the spot of the foul....how would this be different?

I still hate that it could take points off the board, if say, a player high stepped the last 2 or 3 yards in and the ref decided that was taunting. The fact that points could be removed when there isn't a penalty that helped the score (pass interference, holding..etc..) is what I think has everyone hating on this rule.

i'd like you to tell NFL players that taunt that they're acting like they're "in middle school" see if you feel the same way about it as you're acting right now.
bottom line, there's emotion in sports. they ought to be able to exhaust it at least a little bit. it's a little ridiculous to expect them to keep tabs on their emotions in huge games... hell, for me, in any game. i'd be happy as heck, and i'd want to celebrate a lot. i mean, keep your stuff together, stay focused, stay disciplined yada yada yada...
they wouldn't play the game if it didn't matter. we wouldn't watch it if it didn't matter.
