Who knows - football is a game of chaos and nothing ever happens the same way twice in a row for a myriad of reasons. But Mays didn't do anything illegal there. The outside blockers on an on-side kick are usually going to try to block out guys like Moeaki. Remember, on a lot of those on-sides, the play is designed for the first men in to blow away the hands team and the gunners will come in from the outside for the recovery. Yeah, their helmets collided, but as has been mentioned - that happens on every ST play or in the trenches every snap. It's also not illegal helmet/helmet contact in those instances. The rules for blocking players are different than the rules for QBs, pass-catchers or ball-carriers because the players involved are seen as being on equal footing. It's like a guy in hockey getting blasted when he has his head down at center ice or a 2b getting upended when he's nonchalant about turning a double-play. If you play hard and play focused, that stuff doesn't happen. Moeaki didn't have his head in the game and wasn't giving max effort. As a result, Mays lit his world up. He won't do that again.

Mays had a bunch of late/dirty hits in that game. He's a POS. I hope someone breaks his leg in half as well.

To put it into perspective:
The ball was kicked from the 30 yardline, and Moeaki had a running start to the LOS. Mays started from a standing stop at the 40. And Mays blew Moeaki apart at the 33. Moeaki covers about 4 yards in the time that Mays covered 7. Mays brought more speed and more energy to that party - he was focused and ready to play, Moeaki wasn't.

Mays didn't taunt after the hit, which I would have expected. It was not a dirty hit, it's football. They hit each other. A lot.
Look. The Donkey's desperately needed a win, and a big win at that. The last time we were in that building we raped the shit out of them. Then a couple games ago the filthy Raiders destroy them. After a bye week, they get a shot at the division leader and hated rival Kansas City Chiefs. I wouldn't expect them to play with any less fire. Hopefully, Tony is OK. He sure didn't look good after that play...

I wish we had an enforcer like that on our team. Our enforcer just doubles as a puffer.

What goes around comes around.
Mays will have to come to Arrowhead. We'll have a little sumptin sumptin for him. I'd show that play to the Special Teamers about 500 times in film study the week before the Donk game at Arrowhead. |

Solid game today. Did it make you miss the 'good times' ?

Shocked the football didn't dislocate any ribs when he grabbed the touchdown.
