Good for them for taking advantage of the rule all season...it's basically unstoppable. I think it's stupid though, and needs to be talked about in the off season.

I think you parse it too…like when I see a ball carrier not going down and basically a scrum forms….I like that, but if the play off the los is to run multiple back into one another to push forward that’s the issue.
