Ive watched football for 10 years but i never quite understood this...
Sometimes they call a false start if a lineman or receiver even so much as flinches before the snap...
yet before every snap i look at all the offensive linemen and 1 second before the ball is snapped i can see some shift their shoulders moving up and down etc...i guess i just dont understand what it is because before every play after the lineman are set i see multiple linemen moving before the snap every play.
