So although all intentional grounding penalties result in the same outcome, which is a spot foul and loss of down what is a spot foul in football? This is likely the reason why the foul is not also recorded as a sack. Also, it has always been recorded in this manner and so no change will likely ever be pursued because how it is recorded into the official statistics has no bearing on the outcome of the game. But there is no doubt that players can lose out on potential sacks because of how intentional groundings are recorded.
Compare this rule to the goal tending rule in basketball. When a shot is illegally touched in basketball, resulting in goal tending being called, the points are still awarded to the offensive player even though there is no guarantee that the ball would have actually gone through the basket. This is probably a case of, yes, it could be, but no, it never will be.
If you are wondering whether your fantasy defense will be awarded with sack points because of an intentional grounding, the answer is no, they will not be awarded points. Most all standard fantasy football leagues do not award points for intentional grounding penalties. Having played fantasy for many years, this is a sick way to lose out on a couple fantasy points because the quarterback takes away a sack by committing an illegal forward pass.

The rules do allow a quarterback to receive the snap and immediately spike the football to stop the clock. Rule 8 Section 5. Rule 12 Section 1 Article 3.
