The NFL sent a memo to all 32 teams on Tuesday to remind players to “clearly” report as eligible receivers after a controversial officiating decision ended Saturday’s Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys game.
You’re not allowed to try to be deceptive with who’s eligible any more. They made it a point after teams abused it too many times in too many ways.
The deception is supposed to be about the fact that usually you do that to block, not hiding who’s eligible from the defense. The defense is entitled to know before you align.
It was called out over the PA… incorrectly. That’s on Allen. Refs F’d up. Also on that tripping call, and holding by Dallas would have offset it. That crew is trash and should be relegated to non stop Cardinals- Panthers games.
