Bull shite. There have been plenty of reasonable responses. The rule is dumb. Its being hidden behind the guise of player safety, which in itself is spineless and should tell someone all they need to know about the motivations for the rule proposal to begin with.

Actually, kilo, I agree with your post above. I think the offense should be allowed to control the tempo as long as they don't sub. If they choose to sub, the defense should be allowed to sub without relying on a referee to stand over the ball (subjective enforcement) until the defensive player gets in position.
But none of that changes my point in THIS thread. The slowdown rule affects every play that the HUNH is used, because the offense rushes to the LOS and the defense cannot afford to attempt to sub.
*****and I have no comment on player safety. I don't believe player safety is a good justification of this rule. But I don't control Nick Saban's mind, so he can argue whatever he believes.
