I don't understand why it would be outlawed. Seems like a good hard-nosed football play.

Don't outlaw it. I've seen KC stop it.

It's like Kam jumping over lines to block field goals. The NFL wants parity and one team getting an advantage, even by skill, just isn't acceptable.

It's amazing how good the Eagles are at that play.

They consistently get 2-2.5 yards with that play even when every human knows it's about to happen.

Kelce mentioned on his podcast, he thinks teams will start faking injuries so the NFL bans it.

Williams and Reed getting blown off the line of scrimmage. It's man on man and Eagles guards and center are more manly 🤷‍♂️

KJ explained how to stop it and makes sense. Pete and Hurt think pinching the dline is sufficient

nonsense. I've seen KC beat it. But you have to be more of a man than the guy across from you. And the Eagles just man up better. Kelce is a beast.
Yes. So if your team is better.....then your team is stronger. Just like ours back in the LOB days.

You gotta treat it like a rugby scrum. Head for head. Helmet for helmet. Who squats the most wins.

not really. Better and stronger are not the same things. Plus folks have pointed out that we are not matching up. For example we are using a 4 man front and pinching down instead of using a 5 man front. Which, if you really want to stop it, man up and push them back.

And, again, I have seen KC man up and stuff this play. Plus other teams try it and it fails. It is most definitely stoppable.

Understood and correct. I stand corrected.

Thing is size and weight wins even when the D is lowest. Nobody else is doing this with anything like the success Philly has.
