You seriously think a player can't have forward progress and also have a teammate help pull him at the same time? Seriously?

This is your problem. You're 100% wrong on this. You can help pull a guy and him still be moving forward. What alternate reality are you living in?
You can pull a guy forward sure, but you don't pull a guy who is already moving forward, you would be getting in his way.
Do you even know why the forward progress rule exists and why it's illegal to pull? It's for player safety. The moment someone starts to pull, they will basically always blow the whistle and that is where forward progress ends.
This is no different.

If they decline the penalty they don't mark it at the spot of the foul...
If they decline it, then the foul never happened...
Jesus.

Nah, he kept churning his legs, pushing harder and further into the defenders chest.
I’ve posted the gif in this thread. Unfortunately for Tennessee fans, “the defenders chest” isn’t a distinguishable position on the football field. Just because a player’s body parts are moving doesn’t mean anything. If he’s not moving forward, forward progress is lost and the ball is dead. If that is even in question, the ball is dead.

Yeah, it's called being in the way. If you aren't in the way, it's because they aren't moving forward.
You do understand we are talking about if the penalty had been called right? The penalty will come out and the whistle will blow at the same time.
Feel free to show me a time when this penalty is called and it also did not coincide with the end of the play.

Do you guys not understand that this rule is centered around forward progress?

And when the runner had a reasonable chance of forward progress.

The problem is you're too stupid to understand that forward progress and someone pulling you are independent of each other and can occur at the same time.

By your logic, linemen pushing a QB or RB across the line is illegal as well.
This is obvious! What you're saying isn't obvious!

I've watched football for 30 years and I can recall it being called twice.
Once in the USC game against notre dame if memory serves me right where Matt Leinhart was pushed (not pulled) in and once in a peewee football game I played in where we pushed a guy in.

The teammates can push a player but they cannot tug a player forward. Per the rules

This stupid SOB thinks watching a YouTube video makes him an expert on whatever topic is being discussed
Covid (completely wrong), programming (he’s arse at it), flipping houses (lmao), being a ref, etc.,
He probably thinks cooking Hamburger Helper makes him a master chef.

Oh, so tell me why you think the rule exists if it's not dealing with situations like this where forward progress is in question.

This was the game that many argue changed the rule. In that instance, it wasn’t called but absolutely should have been, and Notre Dame fans were rightfully livid.

The USC play you are talking about wasn't called.
I've seen it called a few times, but never declined.
