yes he should of lined up a yard off the ball 8 men can't be on the line
and the Eagle should of lined up 2 yards farther forward to get on the line
LOL. No TE is covered therefore making him an ineligible receiver.

SEVEN OR MORE MEANS YOU CAN HAVE 8 GUYS ON THE LINE!!
The Foles td they only had 6 on the line of scrimmage. Jeffreys was a minimum of a yard behind the right tackle. He is not considered on the line
It's over. Career Over. He choked.
He needs to do the right thing and acknowledge that all of the Pats success has been Belichick. Alex Smith would have won the same amount as Super Bowls
Wow you're back for more you IDIOT!! Don't you see when you're clearly outmatched, or are you too dumb to comprehend! Minimum a yard behind really!?!?! Well here's the complete picture with the yard marks on the sideline!

You see the 3 yard line on the far sideline. Jeffreys foot is beyond the 3 yard line. Now do you see the 3 yard hash mark in the middle of the tackles' back. Jeffreys is lined up beside the tackle not a "minimum of a yard behind the right tackle" you fucking idiot!! Now go get your fucking shinebox!!
Well buddy you were wrong but some of us knew that all along. Former head of officiating Mike Pereia said the officiating crew got the call wrong & specifically said Jeffery was lined up wrong. I will take the word of someone who actually knows all the rules & actually was in charge of officiating versus the opinion of a random watcher.
“I know the league came out and said that it’s a judgment call, which it is,” Pereira said, via Clark Judge of the Talk of Fame Network. “The down judge, who was the one that [the play] was on his side of the field, they felt that it was his judgment, and [receiver Alshon Jeffrey] was close enough. Well, he wasn’t. They lined up wrong.
Not only that, it’s a trick play. And if you’re going to run a trick-type play, then you have to be lined up properly. You could either have six men on the line, or you could have an ineligible number lined up at the end of the line, which was the case. I know what the league has said, but they would have been a lot more comfortable if they would have called an illegal formation.“We always use a yard [within the line of scrimmage], maybe a yard-and-a-half. But that’s two [yards], and even a little bit beyond two. It’s kind of one of those that has no effect on the play. I get it. But they didn’t line up properly. And it really should’ve been called."

End of discussion
Give it up, you are some nobody on a sports gambling forum trying to say you know more than someone who used to be the head of officials in the NFL. Stop making yourself look even more clueless than you already are.
Next you will tell us you know more about performing surgeon compared to someone with actual experience.
Why give up when I proved you wrong? I used want you presented and proved it wrong. Anything more? Like I said before it's a fucking MOOT POINT after Jeffrey's checks in! Ref tells him he's ok he cannot then flag him for illegal formation not even for the Patriots!! And there's no way given the evidence that Jeffrey's was two yards off the ball! And what does "you could either have 6 men on the line" tell you about that statement? The guy should think before he speaks. Get proven wrong by the facts resort to name-calling! Any evidence to add please do and I'll knock it right out of the park again! Play was legal end of discussion!
You proved nothing wrong and you DO NOT know more than what someone who did the job for a living did.
