And as ridiculous as it sounds to say this, they were very average for most of the regular season this year with all those guys. The Cameron firing turned out to be pure genius because they gelled after that and got hot, then Flacco kind of carried them through the playoffs and they got big/lucky plays when needed (Jacoby vs Denver, Jacoby in the SB). Could be setting up for a bad year in Baltimore, but who knows with the NFL.

I guess that is the point The NFL is weeding out running plays More Passes . . . More Passes Rocket River
Bears sign LB D.J. Williams Bengals re-sign OT Dennis Roland Chiefs re-sign LB Edgar Jones Free Agent DT Anthony Adams is retiring Panthers to re-sign DL Dwan Edwards Rams release TE Matt Mulligan Texans sign P Shane Lechler
Let's see . . . This rule makes it harder for the running to fight for a first down defenseless receiver calls . . . makes it easier for the receiver to get the ball You make the call Rocket River
Bears got him for cheap so at least they don't lose anything if he has another off field issue. 1 year stop gap at best.
4th and 5 was not a running play before this rule, and it's not a running play after this rule. This rule had no effect on that. Stop trying to defend your terrible example.
