There are can't-touch pass interference rules that go against the defense. Hitting high is a defensive no-no. Clobber the quarterback above the pads or below the knees, and the defense is penalized.
To the long list of rules and regulations that favors the NFL offense, add the way they keep score.
When Peyton Manning, the Broncos' offensive leader, threw a pick-six early in the second half Sunday against the Washington Redskins? Those seven points were charged to the Denver defense.
When Broncos' cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie intercepted a pass late in the game and returned it 75 yards for a touchdown? Those points were added on the Broncos' offensive scoring total.
