I dunno. The rule means that big offensive lineman can't be downfield presumably blocking or getting in the way on pass plays before the pass has been thrown. What is it, 2 yards downfield or something? I feel like there are a lot more dudes breaking the pocket and passing on broken plays, so linemen are finding themselves downfield more that before.
It's a pain in the ass, but it's the rule no?
