[QUOTE="Bruce Wayne, post: 73536, member: 231"] Option 10, the forward pass to Snoddy should have been flagged as "ineligible man down field" should it not? Because basically all of the linemen were already well past the line of scrimmage at the time the pass was made it means the refs missed the penalty. A lateral or pitch can be made anywhere but not the forward pass and it has to do with where the linemen are and the line of scrimmage, right? Or am I not understanding the rules? I actually had asked Roddy about an issue closely related to this very scenario at a scrimmage and based on what he told me we were in agreement that you can almost never make a "pass" out of our triple option play because the linemen would always end up flagged as ineligible receivers downfield. Too strange that in the very first game this scenario came up. Now I need to talk to Roddy about it again. :) I want to know if my opinion that "the refs missed a penalty" is correct or not. However, if I am wrong or if we could use Thomas's speed to get to the corner [I]for [/I]Snoddy then lateral/pitch back the ball to him so he can just turn on his straightline speed it would be a pretty slick play. Maybe line Snoddy up as a WR and use him on a smoke route if you can get a lead blocker for him. [/QUOTE]
