Yeah, we (my parents and I) thought the same thing. Tang said after the game it wasn’t the case, he and Nowell were trying to call two different things and Nowell caught Johnson out of the corner of his eye and, those two having that Mahomes to Kelce off script chemistry (keeping with my argument), just ****ing quick shoved the pass. An extremely quick glance that direction by Nowell before the pass is the only thing that keeps it from being a true no look pass but, he didn’t miss that no looker by more than a hair.
Anyway, regardless if the back and forth was designed or not, it had the same effect, and Nowell and Johnson cashed in on it with an exclamatory alley-oop for a reverse dunk. I was hard. I still am.
