Refs can just straight up award a TD to a team because of penalties?

Wow, in all my years of watching the game, I've never heard that one before.  At the same time, not sure what else you want the defense to do there when the Eagles use up the full play clock with the hard count to try and draw them offsides.

It's a rule for 'palpably unfair act'. Washington was not trying to do anything unfair, but refs can't necessarily judge intent. The argument has been made that the 'tush push' is already palpably unfair, so it is what it is.

I think the point is a defense could keep encroaching on the goal line to just indefinitely prevent a score. But this was, imo, different. There's just no way to stop that play at the 1 unless the O makes a mistake

I really hope the nfl can find a way to make penalties called incorrectly or not called when should be called less a part of the game.  Seems most nfl games now are decided by penalties makes it hard to watch and enjoy

Also tush push play is one of the most boring play ever

      Trade Chuba?

      Just like WR, you thin it out and then suffer an injury and you are scrambling.  Any RB could have run through some of those those holes though and maybe you don’t get the same xtra yards but you are getting yardage.  It is the pass catching they will miss the most.

      Without Sanders, they are stil catching balls. Sanders is about a giveaway to it will be a pass play.   Also, hoping we see the competition at RB keep both guys on their toes.

      I was talking about pre season hype vs now.  They were talking about him being the best route runner on the team and being unguardable.  Putting people in the blender.  He has had 1 catch the last two games, and before that it was 2 per game. I like Renfrow, but it seems him and Bryce are not on the same page.
