Except he did get called for it eventually lol

And the helmet must be up to the center’s waist…. His helmet was at the guard’s waist

[WUnderhill]

Hope our guys take some notes. I assume its worth one call to be able to line up like that the whole rest of the game.

Someone on the Huddle did a thread last year on this topic…seems OL are being given much more latitude, and an earlier jump all the time now.  Is the league trying to protect QBs?  Who knows, but it does seem to happen a lot.

That dude literally moved first on every snap and was lined up the f knows where.

It’s called NFL script to give Mahomes and Chiefs any edge possible

The past few years I’ve been seeing some OTs start their back pedal a full second before the ball is snapped and rarely get called for it. That’s not adjusting a back foot, they’re completely beginning their back pedal as if the play had started. That’s the one that annoys me for not getting called.

I thought he was playing fullback

I was watching that lineman frequently last night and I said to myself that either he has godly reaction time or he's offside every play. Glad to know you guys caught it too.

Even booth dudes called it out.  I’m surprised (not really) that refs were all onboard with whatever was happening.  I’m certain they got a heads up that this will happen and to ignore it.  There’s just no way in hell this was not scripted.

They won't let it go next week after being called out publicly about it. There will be a "tighten up" memo sent down to referee crews about this. They may already have it.

If you don't think he was offsides every time he at least twitched and reset himself every time. I would call that trying to draw the defense offsides. What he did do was give the Lions D a heads up about what the play was going to be by where and how he lined up. That I'd be pissed about if I was his coach.

It’s gotta be out by Sunday or every tackle is going to be trying to do it.
