The fourth way is Sherman or Harris engage in their blocking before Maclin catches the ball, resulting in a penalty that's being called pretty frequently on these plays this year.

It's good play design, but the timing is critical and teams have been getting dinged for blocking too soon a lot.

I have a problem with Alex getting credit for a TD pass on that. Total bullshit.

Credit Maclin with a TD run.

Jesus, you guys are ****ing ridiculous.

A forward pass is a forward pass.

This was my question. Was the fact that it was a lateral mean you can block early?

It's just the kind of call that results in a false start, an incompletion, a sack, then a field goal.

But, to the team's credit, they have been converting more and more like a real offense lately (see the Kelce and Maclin TD throws last week).

This wasn't a forward pass.

Andy doesn't call plays on game day

Except when it's thrown by an ass.

Of course you would.

Don't you have a bet where you have to felate a pig if Smith passes for so many TD's this season?

:spock: He's the author of the article, genious.

In the broadcast, they said it was ruled as a lateral, but looks like they eventually called it a forward pass in the play-by-play.

Pretty much this. It was a good play that worked perfectly, yet we're bitching about it. It is a well-written article that breaks down the play FAR better than anyone EVER does around here, yet people make fun of it as if it's stupid somehow.

In terms of pure Chiefs news and analysis, ArrowheadPride is WAY beyond anything you find on CP these days.

Too many here think they have an idea of what's going on, then when someone actually shows what and explains why, they don't like it
