Every play potentially takes 40+ seconds off the clock. By deliberately letting the 40 second play clock expire, they have traded a 5 yard penalty for those 40 seconds. By rule, you can't do this twice in the same play sequence or there's an additional 15 yard penalty, so after the delay of game, they lined up, and near when the play clock was going to expire, they deliberately went offsides, thus killing another 40 seconds off the clock.

My all-time favorite “knowing the rules“ moment was done by Buddy Ryan back in the late 80s when he coached the Eagles. It was called the “Polish punt team“. Follow me on this.. -There was about 30 seconds left in the game. -The Eagles had the ball on 4th down. -They were up by 4 points. -They lined up to punt. Buddy sent out 22 guys on the punt coverage team. Back then, they wouldn’t disallow a play to start if there were too many men on the field(They have since changed that rule so in that scenario, the refs would throw the flag and not even allow the play to happen). So basically Buddy figured that by sending 22 guys out there, the opposing team wouldn’t have a chance to have any sort of return. But they also didn’t want to accept the penalty because time would runoff the clock since they don’t put time back on a clock due to a penalty like that.

wait, let me get this straight, Belichick, known for playing with the rule book (I don't mean any of the scandals they have been involved with) is upset that another coach is doing just that?

[@patrickwall8517]

I've never understood the reasoning or the purpose behind the rule that if the returner puts a foot out of bounds when he fields the kick off it makes the kick out of bounds. How is that the kicking team's fault?

[@tomatoisnotafruit5670]

There are very many stupid rules in the NFL, it's best not to question it.

[@leosoberon3216]

Imagine if you needed the Ravens to win by 7 and that safety cost you the bet lol

[@stevendchu]

Bill Belicheck: Don't act like I didn't make Mike Vrabel. HE STOLE MY WHOLE FLOW! WORD FOR WORD, BAR FOR BAR! Nahh but fr, if the Jets could decline penalties why couldn't the Pats?

[@wompa70]

That Randall Cobb move was just brilliant. That’s from studying the rule book. How often will like up to be able to do that? Once every two or three years?

[@SloweBro99]

That Ravens play makes me a forever hater of that franchise

[@toastercoasterguy]

i just hate them cuz its afc north

[@jacksonwegner13]

Never seen your videos before but good luck on 100K

[@Loxu69]

1:12 this play is honestly what killed any hopes of me being a jets fan when I got back into football, I was already probably gonna choose the bills or the ravens anyway but adam gase was legitimately the dumbest head coach in the entirety of the nfl. Seeing that the jets gave him another chance was astounding

[@shazanali692]

Wstching a angry belichick makes my day

[@aa1bb2cc3dd4]

The foot out of bounds was actually an incorrect call, because a player can't go out of bounds and be the first one to touch it on a punt or kickoff. So, by the REAL rule, that would have been illegal touching on the receiving team, half distance to the goal where he downloaded the ball. Or re kick.

[@glitzyx4x852]

That’s what I’m thinking too but the browns did it again not to long ago

[@jacobstrutner8232]

Refs got it wrong. You are correct

[@RoyalMela]

@@jacobstrutner8232 They got it right. It was and still is a correct call.

[@RoyalMela]

It was and still is a correct call. Free kick out of bounds.

[@f1pro910]

Couple of things that i hate in NFL is that coaches are allowed to speak with players in the game and change strategies and they can even control when to request timeout. Technically coach is playing the game but players are just like robots. It should be like other sports where you are on your own once you are on the field and captain decides the game plan.

[@iec7587]

NBA coaches yell out instruction all game and use hand signals as well MLB managers use signals all game

[@dustinplatt6882]

I remember when us Ravens fans had some fun special teams moments. Probably because John Harbaugh was a great special teams coach.

[@Dadbot]

Now he’s a bum…. Or something. Been really doing things backwards this season with his team that’s for sure. Then again, they were 8-8 when they won the SB so what do I know lol

That holding clip always makes me laugh so hard

[@LordVader5738]

@0:48, I was laughing when I saw this, but in the long run, this was one of the worst things Bill has ever done. It bit us in the ass when we went to the playoffs.

[@JordTheeNord]

Is the clock runoff in the Titans game a loop? Like if it was the start of the quarter could they just keep false starting and then delay of game over and over? I assume no so when does the loop end?

[@AEMoreira81]

The first play was so brilliant that the rules were changed to prevent a repeat.

[@TehGamesaver]

For real? It literally had a repeat!! The repeat was in this video!! It didn't prevent a repeat. It will prevent it from ever happening again though, but it didn't stop a repeat.

[@ArkLaTuck]

Brandon Ripley Congrats on being an asshole for no reason

[@micahmoore9845]

@@TehGamesaver Those to clips happened in the same year. The rules were changed after the fact.

[@dannywalker5319]

Imagine how frustrating it would be if the entire offense didn’t care about holding penalties. Just seeing how hard the defense was working for the offense to just bear hug them was so funny to me

[@dspears666]

I had the first play holding idea years ago. Glad someone tried it. Did they close the loophole because I haven’t seen it since.

[@rg20322]

The one missing here is NE against the Ravens and the Ravens going nuts during the playoffs!

And that’s why I don’t like Belicheck. He’s a little crybaby. Thinks he can do whatever he wants and when somebody does it to him, he acts like the game is rigged.

Can someone explain the delay of game and why you would want to do it or can do it without consequences?

Interesting that most of the dodgy calls involve the Pats.

[@rmusic22]

Belichick doing some trolling is just hilarious

[@JCic22]

Bill laughing that way is me in pain for 2 minutes because I am sore from laughing. That was beautiful. Gase the only good thing he has done as a head coach.

[@josephkingsley8708]

I hate Harbaugh with a passion. He’s complained more than once about opponents’ gamesmanship, but he’s the fucking king of it.

[@scottj4641]

Story was that Belichick hated that loophole and had argued to close it but NFL declined. So he demonstrated it in a game where it had no effect because they were up 33-0, hoping that people would complain and NFL would close the loophole. Later that season the Titans used that loophole against the Patriots in a close game where it DID matter. Of course it continued to bother Belichick.

[@The-fs5wn]

Belichick mad when it’s done against him but happy when he does it to others lmao

[@AGuyNamedRicky]

I always wondered. Technically speaking couldn’t you call a “unsportsmanlike conduct” on any of these plays that are manipulation of rules to affect the clock and force a loss of downs?

[@voidsabre_]

They explained this in the video

[@calebklingerman7902]

As a Titans fan, I knew exactly what the thumbnail was from 😂

Love that Vrable learned that from Belichik, then used it against him to beat him at his on game while Belichik was having a tantrum

And thanks to Vrabel doing that. The chiefs didn’t have to play the Pats. And had an easy stroll to SB54
