No, you're dark-side intergalactic encyclopedia salesmen. Unfortunately, the home office hasn't been quite upfront with you.
Wonder if it is optimal for regular running backs to slide a certain % of the time to keep defenders more hesitant

That was definitely roughing by the book but they need to do something about the rule. There’s just no way a defensive player can 100% avoid contact once they’re committed to the tackle.

There’s some ground between “lights up a defenseless player who has given themselves up” and “does a double backflip to avoid touching Mahomes while he’s leaning back slightly.”

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.

My favorite part of that play wasn't the broken tackle or the guy getting juked, rather it was the Steelers guy just jumping on a different bills player back and tackling him in the end zone

I mean, you especially can't let a QB fake slide to break a big run and then also flag guys for that.

The issue is that holding can only be applied before the pass is thrown. And it sure looked like that happened after the pass occurred.

the defender was clearly holding/interfering though. if it's not technically illegal at that millisecond then it should be and I am glad a flag was thrown. it was cosmically correct
