I also get irritated when teams can't do the simplest things.

How can Eli Manning keep having delay of game penalties?

you are nuts.

Packages are so complex that any one of 16-17 guys can be on the field depending.

In the heat of the moment, a play/formation is called. Guys run onto the field, the package is changed as the coaches see the players/formation the other team has, they change the play, confusion.....

It happens.

yeah its one of those penalties that sounds like its so simple to avoid but in reality has the potential to happen on every down of every game.

It was an easy situation to avoid when teams put 11 guys out there and just let em play.

those days are long gone.

What is the deal the last 2 weeks with teams and the "simulated snap".

I don't understand why they are calling it.

The TE is at the end ofthe line, but NOT in a stance (hand not on the ground) and then shifts, by stepping back.

FLAGS Fly.

Indy had one last night.

That Is NOT against the rules.
