Feels like Packers making at-least 1 bone headed offensive line penalty per drive.
While that may be true the NFL has called offsides on us multiple times this season when we've never been offsides. They keep trying to saying Kelce's hand is Dickerson's hand, when it's not. It's Kelce's and he's allowed to put his hand in the neutral zone.
Same for us. They constantly get confused and flag the wrong player. Also tons of “ineligible receiver down field” on our OL. Feels like they never called that and now it’s at least once a game.
They also called false start on the center. I’m not a rules expert, but isn’t the center… the one who starts? How can he be false?
I get we are young and inexperienced and going to make mistakes… but some of those calls are head scratchers.
It feels like ineligible man downfield and grounding calls have increased league wide this year due to more strict enforcement of the rules.
Center can false start just like any other player if they flinch/act like they’re going to snap the ball and then don’t. If they move forward without snapping the ball it’s also a false start.
