Doesn't the first bit imply that the QBs think it gives them a competitive advantage?
I tend to agree that they are probably wrong and it makes marginally very little difference, but if you know there is a rule and that the refs attempt to enforce that rule and you make a special effort to get around that rule, that sure sounds like cheating, even if it's not cheating that matters much.
Anyway, I really do not care about this, and yet I'm now sort of defending the league and Goodell, which means something has gone horribly wrong somewhere.
