What do you think of the officiating in the NFL?

Except he wasn't.  Ignore the imposed line of scrimmage...his toes are on the yard marker, nose of the ball is at the yard marker.

 

Look at how Toney lined up, foot's farther forward, ball's farther back from the yard marker.  Toney was a good foot farther forward than Waddle is.  

 

The mind-numbing inconsistency of it isn't this comparison, but how inconsistently the Chiefs are called for formation penalties.  Their RT is still only called very occasionally for lining up so far back it amounts to an illegal formation.  

Until next week. Never bite the hand that feeds ya.

those pesky policies don't apply to teams with Preferential Penalty Status.

might be a problem, though,  if that status is revoked

Some confirmation of what's said above: coaching staffs go through trick plays and possible reporting linemen with officials pre-game.

Isn't the league's official position that the officials didn't do anything wrong?  But they're sanctioning them anyway?  :facepalm:  This &#%$ing league.
