One would think King holds some sway, but in this case I think he’ll be ignored. He’s pointing out what seems obvious, but it’s actaully working the way the league wants it. That’s because they want it to be available, but rarely if ever used. They can’t really come out and say that, but the message being sent is clear. Coaches have been testing it, and the response has been universal : Don’t use this unless it’s the playoffs or similar and the game is literally on the line. It will turn the game into a joke if used even sporadically in just about every NFL contest. NFL rules like offensive holding or defensive PI are enforced intermittently and inconsistently just to keep teams “ honest”. The game would be unwatchable if they were always enforced to the letter. Although, with the preponderance of yellow flags in most games lately I have to wonder.
