At the risk of sounding like I'm defending the Ravens, most info indicates that they're trolling the league with this obvious overreaction of a suggestion because when they tried to copy this play idea they got flagged for the player failing to properly report, as seen in the video above. They felt like the official just ignored or missed the player who he "looked right at him" when he reported in Harbaugh's words, ergo this rule proposal.
They still suck for even copying the play and I hate their coach and organization, but let's not pretend like we wouldn't be all LOLOL BB IS GOD if he did this.
Bring on the dislikes!
No one would think that, because it's clearly not a serious rule change proposal. There'd be multiple threads in the vein of "BB gives Goodell middle finger!" And that's okay, it would be funny because BB is our beloved curmudgeon with a wry sense of humor.Ummmm...if BB did this I'm pretty sure everyone would be calling for ambulances to take him to Mass General because he must have had a stroke.

The reason what the Ravens are doing here looks stupid is because they've routinely been whiny, humorless, petty, and charmless as an organization.

You would think they would be embarrassed to submit this rule.
"Is this just fantasy?"Beat me to it. Is this real life?
I don't disagree that it's stupid, misplaced, and a bad look coming from them, about this rule especially. It's just that everyone seems to be taking this as a serious rule change proposal, ignoring the fact that the Ravens has other incident(s) with the ineligible rules post-2014 playoffs, and I disagree with the interpretation that they are genuinely suggesting that this happen.Well if they were trolling like you say they were they did a terrible job of it. And if BB did this after being angry about a legal rule, I would call him a hypocrite. I remember Harbaugh after the Divisional round saying something like, "It's never happened before. The league will look into it". You mean to tell me a guy like THAT would be smart enough to "troll" a league that already has bad principles and rules in place? Sure, the refs may have been wrong in that instance as well but that doesn't mean Harbaugh is right to complain, ESPECIALLY after doing the same thing to score a 1st quarter TD against the Raiders. He needs to have some type of tact. If letting a LT run a route and catch a pass isn't deception, then I'm lost here.

haha yup... you know those times when you're at an event or gathering and someone does something so embarassing/awkward that you literally feel embarrassed yourself for them...
That's the Ravens right now
