Im watching the colts saints game... and the guard keeps reaching over and tapping the center to make him snap the ball.... how the heck is that not an offsides or motion penalty?

Re: not offsides?
so a guard could TWITCH his hand and draw the defender off and its not a penalty?
damn ive been watching football for 40 years and i thought ANY motion by a lineman once he is set is a motion penaltyIn my day we did not have self-esteem... we had self-respect, and no more of it then we earned.

Moving their hands around and/or pointing, touching a fellow OL doesn't do that.
But if he were to suddenly go from a still motion to a quick, jerky type motion to do it, it may be called, because that's basically the same kind of movement they would have at the snap (thus, "simulating" the snap).Buffalo Bills Now! and NFL Now! podcasts
