actually it works because not everyone on the field goes down field some run reverse or just stay on the line

Correct, only 5 eligible receivers can go down field at any one time.

read the f'n website and you'll understand why it is legal.
I swear I hate people post before even doing the minuscule amount of reading it takes to comprehend.....

i did read it and its not a punt formation like you seem to think. the way you described it, that formation would have been illegal.

alright. you are right god. even though from the beginning i said you have to have seven down lineman and you said actually you dont because its a punt formation. but its not even a varation of a punt formation. the assistant coach thought it was at first glance. so my question is. How hard is reading comprehension?

i understand the offense and the fundamentals of football. my original statement was that seven players must be on the line of scrimmage. you said no because you though it was a punt formation. which isnt but a punt formation still needs seven players on the line of scrimmage.

"Thereby meeting the criteria for a scrimmage kick formation. "

Rule 2-14-2 p. 26 Rule Book: A scrimmage-kick formation is a formation with at least one player 7 yards or more behind the neutral zone and in position to receive the long snap. No player may be in position to receive a hand to hand snap between the snapper's legs.

Play 9.4.6 p. 69 Case Book: Situation A: From the scrimmage kick formation, A1 snaps the ball to back A2 who is 3 yards behind the line and offset from the snapper by 1 yard. A2 runs for a 10-yard gain. Immediaely after the snap started, B7 charges: (a) directly into the snapper; or (b) into the gap between the snapper and the adjacent A player making simultaneous contact with both the snapper and the other Team A player. The snapper had not had the opportunity to defend himself and was displaced by B7's charge. Ruling: In (a) B7 has roughed the snapper. If accepted, it is a 15 yard penalty and an automatic first down. There is no requirement that the ball be kicked or that a deep back receive the snap. In (b) there is no foul. The snapper's protection does not include simultaneous contact with another A player, nor does it take away the "center-guard" gap from B. The roughing prohibition is only for a direct charge into the snapper.

Rule 9-4-6 p. 64 Rule Book: Roughing the snapper. A defensive player shall not charge directly into the snapper when the offensive team is in a scrimmage-kick formation. Penalty: 15 yards from the previous spot and an automatic first down.

Rule 2-30-14, p. 32 Rule Book: A snapper is the player who is facing his opponent's goal line with his shoulders approximately parallel thereto and who snaps the ball. In a scrimmage kick formation, the snapper remains a snapper until he has had a reasonable opportunity to regain his balance and protect himself or until he blocks or moves to otherwise participate in the play.

you do that. you arent proving anything against my original statement. which was a formation needs seven players on the line of scrimmage. i never said anything about eligible receivers. or punting. so post useless information trying to prove your invalid point.

Then how is this formation legal? How about the swinging gate punt formation WVU ran last year? Because its a punt or "Scrimmage Kick" formation. It really isn't rocket science

this formation has seven players on the line of scrimmage. you are arguing with yourself

center two tight ends/tackles depending on play. =always at line of scrimmage=3

3 receivers each side=6 player=4/6 must be at line of scrimmage=4+3=7

so this formation is Legal at the line of scrimmage. whether or not they have 5 eligible receivers or not has nothing to do with the formation. so maybe our whole arguement was a misunderstanding of eachother. but it isnt a punt formation. it is a-11 formation=gay.

if you though when i said seven players i was talking seven lineman i wasnt. but i think we have been on the same page the whole time. but correct me now if you think im wrong still

No it doesnt look at the freaking diagram I posted, there is 1 person on the line of scrimmage, and the rest are 1 yard off the line. Maybe you can read, but your vision is so bad you can't see
