Excuse my ignorance, but what’s up with this? I don’t recall seeing it before last weekend. Half a second before the snap, an offensive lineman rapidly points forward.

Two questions:

  1. Is there an exception under the false start rules that makes this OK?

  2. Why are they doing it? To try to make the defense jump?

    Hey all so ya I noticed this also . And I can honestly say besides the past week or so the o line movement has grow before snap . It’s becoming a joke as all thses new rules take away from defensive end of the ball and mostly in the pass rush … not sure what the NFL has in mind but it’s looking like a show for only offense. I watch a lot of football and seen many games and this movement on the o line has to stop its getting a bit silly .

    I think the NFL makes enough money so this open end gambling on games is hampering the game and my beliefs in the out come of games …
