The NFL world is buzzing with frustration over the recent surge in illegal formation penalties. Fans and players alike are voicing their discontent, with Jason Kelce leading the charge.
During the Chiefs vs. Ravens game, a series of controversial illegal formation penalties sparked outrage. Jason Kelce, the former Philadelphia Eagles’ center, took to social media to express his frustration, stating, “I haven’t seen this many flags in a row since Jawaan Taylor last year.” Boston Connor echoed this sentiment, calling for a return to the old rules on the offensive line.
The controversy centers around the strict enforcement of tackle alignments. Kelce pointed out, “Man, they are not messing around with these tackles alignments. And to be fair, Stanley is still too far back!” This sentiment was shared by many, including Connor Hughes, who exclaimed, “Oh my god I don’t care where they lineup anymore, just let them play.” The NFL’s crackdown on these formations has led to a significant increase in penalties, leaving players and fans frustrated with the game’s flow and fairness.
Man they are not messing around with these tackles alignments. And to be fair, Stanley is still to far back!
