You won the game, thats in the books, but you cannot deny that in a game where the Chargers did not get one bounce their way, until that play, it is shitty for the Chargers fans to get that taken away from them.

No they won't. They're not going to come up with a rule change. There absolutely no way to do it. You can't ask refs to guage whether a player is giving 100% effort or not after a whistle has blown. It's impossible.
You can't tell who's letting up, and who is not when EVERYONE is supposed to let up after the whistle. This rule will never change.
