Football Receivers Pushing Off and Pick Plays - Page 2

Pushing off and pick plays are both technically against the rules, but only egregious examples are called these days. Every 3rd down converted by the Pats in OT was due to a push off by the receiver who caught the ball, and at least one had a pretty blatant pick play in it as well.

I know the NFL has gone all in on offense, but it is a disservice to a huge facet of the game to allow such blatant cheating, and then to flag defenders for minor contact and calling it Holding or PI.

Everyone does it, the big Sammy Watkins play was on a pick, it was why Belichick threw his touchpad.

Pick plays have been killing us all year long. All damn year.

That's why I don't care if Conley plastered that dude on the Sammy "Feets" Watkins play. I don't care one whit. Or one-third whit, for that matter. Call it on us, you need to call it on them ... that's what I say. And Billy Badass can stuff his tablet. He probably stole it from another team, anyhow.
