do think the way Gus ran RPOs with down the line passes knowing referees would not call linemen down field was gimmicky. Extremely gimmicky. And it's a gimmick he can't get away with anymore.
Why can he not get away with down the line passes? He should be good as long as the pass is caught behind the LOS, no?

No, as in the QB ran the mesh with the RB down the line then threw to a WR outside as his OL was clearly down the field.
Referees weren't used to it, didn't know what to do and basically decided to allow it until the next few seasons when it was brought up repeatedly.
