This has been going on for years. And now they just decided to come down hard on it.

NFL sends warning to teams about faking injuries

Why is the NFL acting like faking injuries during long-sustain drives is brand new? You see a lot in college football. A lot more compared to the professional level. It’s mainly because they are trying to slow down the high pace offenses that we often see in college football. In a letter...

Oh, no. A strongly worded letter? Watch out.

this should be really good.

We are about to get a 15 yard penalty tonite.

If TLL had stayed down and the ref threw the flag, and we won, the league would investigate us. Lol

We're the Saints, remember.

Sometimes is pretty obvious. I'm talking "soccer flop" level obvious.

In one of the games yesterday a defense was bringing on a couple of subs and the offense was starting to line up for a play. Realizing they would get caught with too many on the field a defender got a sudden leg cramp and collapsed. After the trainers came out he stands up and walks off the field like nothing happened. I am guessing this is why the NFL came out with the memo.

What about if a head coach is faking that one of his QB's is still injured? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[saintsmarchin]

Well damn.. now the NFL is gonna flag us for faking injuries because our players get injured all the time and that's not realistic

Get up you baby!

Anthony Hargrove did this in SB XLIV.

Its OK when we do it.
