[QUOTE="bravejason, post: 121172, member: 1069"] Not quite sure I fully understand the scenario. The way I understand the rules is: If the opponent possesses the ball in his own end zone and he (or a teammate) brought the ball into the end zone on his own initiative, then that would be a safety. If instead he was involuntarily moved into his own endzone during the tackle, then that would be down by forward progress (theoretically...) at the one foot line. To be a touchback, the opponent must cause the ball to be in the end zone. That's my high level understanding. There could be a nuance in the rules I don't know about and which may cause a different answer. [/QUOTE]
