Chip Kelly and the Eagles: cheating or smart?

“NFL rules say that, a stipulation, is that the music needs to be turned down with 20 seconds left on the play clock, when the opposing offense is on the field,” Spadaro said. “So, Chip [Kelly], said well if there is no rule about when our offense is on the field, let’s play the music. And his thought is, well, we’re used to playing with the music. This perhaps limits the defenses ability to communicate or causes a little bit of confusion. Once the knee goes down and the play clock goes down to 40 seconds, the music goes on right up until the snap. The Eagles are getting all the music that they have at practice—they’re used to it. They’re are not confused. This is why they’re doing it. Now what’s going to happen, ultimately perhaps, the league is going to have to amend the rule or every other team in the league is going to try to do it.”

not cheating, but the league will change the rules if it is successful

Well it isn't against the rules so it's not cheating.
But I don't see why you'd want it to be loud when your QB is trying to make calls. I guess they won't be making many play changes in their hurry up.

That will last for about 2 minutes before the league steps in

why in the world would you let people know you plan to do this ahead of time?
Posted on 8/16/13 at 5:23 pm to TH03
This is a non-factor.
Those guys on the field are dialed in and won't even notice music.

Traditionally defenses like noise when playing. I don't think they care too much. they have sorta developed their play calling around there being noise.

Hey if it's within the rules then it's perfectly fine and if people wanna change the rules then they're pussies...right HUNH opposers?

Is this really how the NFL wants games decided...by a team taking advantage of artificial noise?
This is not illegal, but it is bush league.
