The Seahawks run a ton of pick plays.
The Nick Bellore TD last week was a designed pick play.
I don't think you guys actually want the NFL to start enforcing the rules on pick plays.
TBF 9ers fans don't either.
Every fanbase wants their team to get away with pick plays while they're being up in arms about their opponents getting away with them too. It's another example of how fans are overwhelmingly full of crap when they complain about officiating.
Nothing about the Bellore TD was remotely a pick play. It was a complete isolation. You're making $h!t up. That is, unless you consider Bellore chipping a defender himself before breaking off in a route a pick.

I said DESIGNED as a pick play.
It looks like Zeke Turner messed up his coverage rules on the play (why Zeke and Jordan Hicks end up doubling Luke Wilson and then Hicks pulls off because that's obviously not the play design), but even if he didn't, the play is designed with the expectation that Zeke Turner will be going with Bellore out to the flat which is why instead of running a route or ever turning for the ball Malik Turner just runs right at Zeke Turner and then doesn't know what to do when Zeke Turner carries Luke Wilson up field.
It's clearer from the All 22 but even on that first angle you can see that Malik Turner isn't actually running a route and is just going 80% speed to where he's expecting Zeke Turner to be to create the rub point (if it was a clear out he'd be full speed -- clear outs are always full speed whereas picks and rubs usually aren't because you're adjusting the route to disrupt and don't want a full speed collision, which will get called) and keeping the cut right past the goal line, not angling in to the endzone at Zeke Turner).
I hope you can understand that we can legitimately disagree on the play design without me "making sh!t up." :roll:
Or if you're objecting to the fact that the Seahawks, like every team in the NFL, runs pick plays, just say that so I can know it's not even worth engaging in the convo. :lol:
