I’ve never paid attention, is this illegal motion common and not penalized?

Here’s the play:

Ha, so blatantly obvious

That's about the worst LBer play I've ever seen.

Not common. It's illegal. A good coach would be in the linesman's ear about it

They'll usually get a little leeway, but that should have been flagged.

He moves forward half a yard forward, but then starts to go lateral again.

We must be watching a different play. He starts his motion lateral, and then goes vertical as the ball is snapped.

He does actually, but it's after the ball is snapped.

Aug 30, 11:48am

Yeah, just checked, he's definitely moving forward when the snap occurs.

He's almost to the line of scrimmage at the snap

Probably called a penalty 80% of the time. Pretty uncommon for it to be so obvious and not called.

Why are we talking about the CFL on CB? Who cares?

The Y's Insider

because Utah is so far north, we think they should leave the Big12 for the CFL

it is generally not called

He's running at like a 45-degree angle. Barely bowing forward?

No way. That's an easy flag.

Yikes! Someone who actually knows (as compared to the rest of CB).
