Good grief! Maybe there's no call if he doesn't forearm chuck him prior to falling

That's not even trying to disguise it.

The pick is interesting in light of Beasley saying he rolled his ankle on the play, got stuck and just ended up running into the defender. Wonder if the plan was for Beasley to run at the defender and then cut to the left away from him. He said he was trying to avoid him, but it certainly doesn't appear that that was what he was trying to do.

I was wondering myself why they didn't show a replay.. maybe the Eagles snap the ball too fast.

The eagles don't control how fast the ball is snapped when Dallas is on O

You can't run them 8 yards downfield and they have to happen almost immediately. The one where Beas got called took too long to develop and the ball was throw right at the pick. It made it a very easy call, whether it was intentional or not. Personally, I don't think that was a designed pick play, it just worked out that way.

The Pats get away with them so much because the run them so quickly and so close to the LOS its nearly impossible to determine where the picking WR was trying to go. It's a schematic issue and, as other have said, a matter of practicing it like crazy.

Oh my god come on Beasley, do the Amendola and throw your hands up in the air like "I'm totally not trying to get in his way"

The issue when we run it, we run it once. Seattle and NE run his consistently throughout the game. If they get a penalty it's one of out 10-15 times. We run it once and never do it again because we are scared. Also, if you don't practice it over and over you won't be good at it and it is obvious during the game. Just my .02.

When I played basketball we used to practiced flopping. Our coach would tell us if that was a bad flop or a good flop. A good flop was when you were able to convince the refs that its an offensive foul.

As for Dallas. Your right. They don't practice it enough to make it "believable" to the refs. Thats why the Patriots and Packers get away with it.

Frankly, I think there is some favoritism in there also. That why teams can still mug Dez and we don't get those calls.

I also think what hurts is the formation. They are split pretty wide, to me it seems the pick works best in bunch formations.

If it's our offensive pass interference, can't figure how Eagles can snap the ball? In any case , the more pick plays is a routine, teams will get better at them and they are betting on the fact Refs are not going to call everyone of them , we need to practice and execute them

Thanks for the video. Yes. It's pretty clear it was an offensive PI. Although, I saw equal ones not called on the Saints and Pats.

It's like anything else, they have to get better at it before the calls stop. Just like some OL never get called for the hold and just like Clay Mathews doesn't get called for cheap shots.

Everyone knows the Patriots play by another set of rules. Heck they even create new rules to stop things we do like the Roy Williams horsecollar tackle rule and the Emmitt Smith helmet rule while letting the Cheatriots get away with murder.

I can definitely see the league conspiracy against the Cowboys on that play.

The Pats and most of the other elite offenses in the NFL use pick plays as a staple because the officials would likely get fired if they call all of them and turn the game into a flag fest. Its the same thing with the Seattle secondary and their grabby ways, they take the handful of calls to get a huge advantage on the rest of the plays and bet that the officials can't call them all because it'd make for an unwatchable game.

sbark · Nov 13, 2015

Seems to me that the teams that are adept at running pick plays and don't get called for them..........they make the defender have to work around another defender as much as anything..............

The Steelers run the pick play all the time (that is where Antonio Brown does most of his damage). And the Steelers run it illegally close to 80% of the time and rarely ever get called for it. We can't even run it perfectly without getting a flag.

Well you have to compare it to calls that weren't called on other teams. Like the examples provided several times.
