Wow, so if the defense player does nothing its a fumble. Brilliant rules they have in the NFL.

It makes perfect sense. If the player is running in the open field, and falls, he's not down, so he can get up and continue running. It happens all the time. A byproduct of this is just common sense - if he fumbles, regardless of whether he's touched the ground or not, the ball is live, because the player isn't down.

Logic. It's your friend.
