That means once your forward progress is stopped, nobody can help you. Your forward progress can't be intentionally aided by others as a part of play design, it can't be guys pushing you forward when you get bottled up 7 yards down field (un-designed) etc etc. Once you are stopped, you are stopped. So it wouldn't just be this play, though this is the most obvious example. The game is so tilted to the offense across all levels of play that I feel stripping offenses of this one advantage is a reasonable position. Others may disagree. In the long distant past this was the rule. Look at the famous end zone picture of Bart Starr's sneak and you see the RB behind him holding up his arms like a TD. he isn;t signaling TD - he is showing the refs that he isn't pushing Starr
