They have the perfect plan. Until they get kicked in the dick. Like every time we play them. Get ahead of them by a couple scores and then they throw their papers in the air and start passing like crazy. Meanwhile Justice Hill is in the game while Henry stands there on the sideline looking dumb. [Reply]

Social media has made people stupid and believe in anything if told enough
Social media sites have been around since the late '90s.
On the other hand though that DB could have knocked him out of bounds and didn't do it. So I don't feel sorry for him. Now if the DB had shoved mahomes out of bounds and then got in a penalty for it that would have been a problem. [Reply]
It's funny thinking people now hate the Chiefs like I used to hate the Cowboys, the Raiders, the Steelers, the Dolphins, the Broncos, the Patriots, the Yankees, the Cardinals, the Phillies and the Reds.
Ravens and 49ers fans hate Mahomes like I used to hate horse face Elway and ten head Peyton Manning.
Back in the 90's (I think) there was a game with the 49ers playing and I think it was Steve Young playing QB. I hated the 49ers and really wanted them to lose. The QB scrambled toward the sideline and definitely made it look like he was just going to trot out of bounds. He absolutely faked out the defense and then ran downfield for a ways. I don't remember anything about the play other than I was really pissed that he had taken advantage of the defensive players going easy on him.
Looking back on it now and the way the 49er fans are whining about Mahomes yesterday, I really wish I could find that play, but I can't. Does anyone else remember this play or know what game it was? [Reply]

No but it’s not super relevant. The entire issue is that QBs are so much better protected now via the rules and officiating that defensive players are afraid to hit a QB in a situation like that, lest it be a personal foul. That absolutely wasn’t the case in Steve Young’s day.
(Mind you, I agree with BJ’s take 100%. And even if there were plays where Mahomes had taken advantage of that, if it’s in the spirit of the rules, who cares?) [Reply]

Yet when Josh Allen does his "fake going out of bounds" Chuck ball to guy downfield after the defense gives up thinking the play is over, it's the "greatest thing ever" "smart" "heady". He also fake slides and uses the sideline on runs to get cheap yards. I have never seen that criticized.

To be fair all of us here said the same things about the Patriots and tried to discredit everything they did. . Now they actually did cheat, did get cheap game changing calls on blown calls, but that's another story :-) [Reply]
