Last play of Ravens/Bengals game

[rightwinger]

11 seconds left, fourth down from the 20. Ravens back to punt
John Harbaugh has his offense tackle and hold every Bengals player(they did this at the end of the Superbowl too) The punter stands back in the end zone watching the 11 seconds tick off and then takes a safety and the Ravens win by 5. Every flag a ref has gets thrown but the game is over

Ravens secure win by holding, taking safety on final play vs. Bengals

Where will this tactic go?

Why not do the same thing with two minutes to play instead of 11 seconds?

You come off the two minute warning first and ten with the other team having three time outs. Typical wisdom is run the ball, 5 seconds, time out. Second down: run the ball, 5 seconds time out. Third down: run the ball, 5 seconds, time out. Fourth down: punt to the other team with 1:45 and no time outs.

Using Harbaughs tactic, you snap the ball on first down but not just tackle and hold the defensive player, you grab his facemask with two hands and hold on for dear life and try to hold him for two minutes. QB runs down the field unmolested and waits at the one yard line. If someone breaks free, he steps into the end zone for a TD

TD gets called back....15 yards facemask on the whole team...repeat first down

You do the same thing over and over until the game is over

I had you all wrong. Seriously though nothing the refs or the NFL does should be surprising anymore.

Surprised we don't see more teams taking a penalty to run out the clock
