That look at me I made a first down thing..

I rather enjoyed Phillip Rivers approach doing his when he stuck a dagger into the hearts of the Ravens at the end of that game.

But yep, don't do that BS when the scoreboard isn't in your favor. Get back to the huddle.
 
During the Houston game in the 4th quarter while down by 14 pts I saw Watson run for a few first downs and then stood up and did the dropping the football first down thing. Crazy really. It's the play offs. You are down 14 pts. You just ran for a first and time is ticking....just simply a selfish act.

Hey, I remember Santonio doing it during the td drive to win XLIII. Time is ticking away, in the biggest moment, on the biggest stage, and Holmes was doing his “jig” after every play he made on that drive. Hell, during the America’s Game (I believe), Lamaar Woodley is on the sideline yelling “come on, we’re wasting time” or something to that effect. As a matter of fact, even after the touchdown, Holmes should’ve been penalized for using the ball as a prop when he did the Lebron James powder thing. If I’m not mistaken, it was a penalty that season, and would have given the Cards the ball with fantastic field position. Thank God it didn’t cost us.

Using the ball as a prop was not a penalty in 2008.
 
Using the ball as a prop was not a penalty in 2008.

The NFL enacted the “prop” rule in ‘06 that stated “an automatic 15-yard penalty against any player who left his feet or uses a prop, like a towel, the goal post or post base or more specifically the football.“ It wasn’t until 2017 when they scaled the rule back to allow it.
