Refs went nuclear on Washington in the playoffs when they went offsides multiple times in that one shart-yardage situation.

I thought it was a great idea and I'd have thought NY might have gotten the point but they didn't.

Yeah, I do remember that now that you mention it. If I remember correctly after a few flags (3?) they awarded Philly with a touchdown because you aren`t allowed to false start perpetually.

I think it is a good approach. The officials have PUBLICALLY admitted that they cannot officiate that play, so why not just f*ck with what is in McVay`s words, NOT a football play.

I liked it because it brought the absurdity of the butt plug play so much needed attention.
 
Rams are shit on short yardage stoppage situations anyway. Can't recall the last time we actually made a stand there. It's not our strength, we're a DL built on quickness and penetration which often comes up short in that situation because you're giving up mass to the opposing OL.

Just keep them out of short yardage. Get your stops at 3+ yards. Put them in a lot of third and longs and a win is possible. Let them run all over the yard on our boys and we're going to lose.

Philly's offense requires the run threat to operate at its winning level. So stop the fucking run on early downs and contain Hurts.
 
The Rams have to stop the run and early in the game most teams can slow that down. The problem is that you have to get at least a 2 score lead so they have to pass more than they run. All their games are close at half time and then the opposing D starts to wear down.
