KC utilized the sprint out plays to neutralize the SF pass rush. 1 with a massive cut block to give Mahomes an open window to get a throw off. The bullet pass on the run is caught by Hardman who holds on after contact. The extra zip on the ball pierces the defense. pic.twitter.com/l9zEzT5ZIF
I criticized McKinnon for not blocking on this play, but looking at it now, he was further away from the defender than I thought, and a block might have also drawn one of those bogus blindside block penalties. So it was good that he didn't take out that defender.
Oh, and watch Trey Smith and Andrew Wylie neutralize some defender. [Reply]
That's Terrance Mitchell, #39, who slams Mahomes down to the ground after he is in the end zone. I didn't like that. But yes, Mahomes is THE man. [Reply]
