He should take the sack?

Ross just have realized that he is gonna be a father. Now he is is sharing with the guys a bad dream he had last night. It is about him playing football with his baby, where baby is a ball and how he(Ross) "heaves it downfield". Here Chandler exclaims:

-What are you, crazy? That's a baby!
And Joey goes:
-He should take the sack?

After which audience is laughing for a long time and I have no clue why. That "take the sack" is probably this specific term in American Football. Could you explain?

  1. Джоуи возражает Чендлеру. А sack - блокировка, сбивание захватом игрока. Ну, и обычно еще куча народу наваливается сверху :)
