I agree with BobM. There is nothing in the rules that requires a team to stick with their play call even after telling the officials. There is no reason to advise the defense of anything. They have every right to play hard until the ball becomes dead. They already know that they can't hit a player once the ball becomes dead. If there are late hits then flag them as normal. If the QB wants to truly take a knee without fear of being hit then he should go ahead and be on his knee and then take the snap.
