Belichick thought up that strategy. Or was the first to use it. If you try to make rules that will defeat smart coaches, they will find a way to use the rules to their advantage.

I don’t like what Belichick’s team has done to the Texans but I think he is an outstanding coach. Wish he was in Houston!
