Can a running back (or QB) be flagged for targeting?

I'd go to Kroger and buy one.

What about grabbing the face mask?  I think I've seen that called on a runner one time, years ago.  I think the borderline grabs are ignored as "stuff arming".  Offensive linemen can't do it.  Running backs can unless they grab and twist, I think.

Is there a hard and fast rule about being on the LOS?  Three feet?  The OLs often are V shaped.  I see this called on punt teams fairly often (not being on the LOS).

If you were going to shoot a mime, would you use a silencer?

IMO this needs to be enforced more strictly

In college I've not once, ever, seen it called on a ballcarrier (QB, RB, WR) even when grabbing and twisting.  It's a really weird double-standard and I dislike it and disagree with it.

A nickel is spelled like the element, not like how it should be spelled.

Is it better to get blown out convincingly or lose in heart breaking fashion at the last second?
