Bunch if crap, unreal that they are forcing style of play..

I always wondered about the substitution rules...can a player exit the field anywhere (except the opponents sideline)? Like could a WR run a deep route, and then just run out the back of the end zone while a sub runs in from the sideline and they snap the ball. Or do they have to exit on their own sideline, between certain markers?
I think you can exit anywhere as long as you are back between the regulated area before the next snap (not saying they call this consistently)....but if you do have any player run off then you have to give the other team time to sub.
Thanks, makes sense. I was thinking about a team having deeper WR corp than the defense has CB's. So on 1st down you send WR's deep just to run the CB's deep. They step out the back, two new WR's come on and do the same thing. Could be running plays but you have now just run the secondary 50+ yards downfield two plays in a row. On 3rd down you bring the original WR's in to again go deep and dare the defenders to keep up. If they give a cushion, throw underneath.
Seems very "Oregon-ish", up tempo and just running the defense into the fround.
