Careful. Although it is not often called, the "pancake" is not legal. It is a violation of 9-4-2e, positioning oneself on the body of an opponent to gain an advantage - 15 yards. It is usually not called because the play is most likely not affected directly, but the "pancake" block engenders ill will and should not be tolerated.
