Bud Grant is almost 100. He's seen a lot. He knows a lot. He wore leather helmets. And he's almost 100

Grant played with Steve Van Buren, Chuck Bednarik and Bucko Kilroy; and won an NBA Championship with George Mikan!

I thought the thread title was a typo. Bud at 95 and still kicking!

Gaining a yard to stop the clock is interesting.

im thinking he meant, if the offense doesn't gain a yard it stops the clock...

force the O to gain 1 yard or the clock stops...

how else could you stop a kneel down when the D has no timeouts...

go rams

That 5 yard cushion would be an absolute flaming mess to officiate and a penalty generator all in one.

Then again I haven’t seen a CFL game in ages, and how that rule is officiated, so maybe I’m wrong.
