Offsides reality

[tredadda]

Looking at the offsides on Toney and the “Let them play” mentality a few things stick out.

1. He was offsides and like it or not, that is inexcusable on his part. Toney should never line up offsides…….ever. That’s a Pee Wee league type of mistake. He didn’t just start playing football this year. Pre snap penalties are the worst because they are completely preventable. He should have never left it up to a ref to decide one way or another, especially with the quality of reffing league wide lately.

2. I get the “Let them play” mindset and not letting a questionable call impact a game. But it can’t be “Let them play” when convenient and when not calls should be made. Look at the SB when KC benefited from a penalty that essentially sealed the game. Had the refs swallowed the whistle like what was wanted today KC might well have lost the SB. We benefited from that penalty. But today we want to yell at the clouds because it was called. Both times the penalty was called, just this time it went against KC.

3. Even after the penalty they still had time to pick up the yards and score a TD and is systemic of how the offense has played for large portions of the year. This team has a championship caliber defense, but the offense is not what we all expect. That might mean an early exit this year. Simply put if the offense hasn’t figured it out by now I question whether they will.

It is what it is.

The man has Zeus himself chucking lightning bolts and he is still a below pedestrian receiver. I get that WRs often have that fighter pilot mentality but this is a man that should understand that he should actually be flying "a plane full of rubber dogshit out of Hong Kong".

He was the same way in Green Bay... he looks great when he catches it... he misses a lot.

Sadly the team seems to have the same victim mentality that the fanbase does.

I really hope we see some comments walked back today when they get the chance.

Reminds me of the Monday night meltdown in 1998 when DT lost it and went after Shannon Sharpe

Same. Especially after seeing them benefit from a call in the SB that sealed the win.

I’ll be interested to see Replay from the all-22 and if he checked with the ref

Receiver at the top lined up right. His front foot is at the same spot Toney’s back foot is.

Toney screwed up at the worst time. It is the offensive equivalent of Dee Ford.

OP is spot on.

It wasn’t close. He’s a full yard forward from where he should be.

Every fanbase does it and Chiefs fans aren't any different.

Toney was close enough where he could whisper in Von Millers ear. Toney looking like Ray Charles out there

The third picture showed both in the neutral zone.

Please explain what you feel I missed.

Do you see how the first and second pictures are from different angles? How do you think that might affect them?

Do you see how there is a yellow line drawn through the ball that goes through Toney and does not touch Von?

Andy Reid said Kadarius Toney didn't check with down judge Mike Carr to ensure he lined up in the correct spot before committing his offside penalty.

Yep, exactly what the all 22 shows

Makes their idiotic meltdown all the worse. If you're going to make assclowns of yourselves at least save it for a **** up so blatant you'll actually have sympathy. Doing it on a textbook offensive offsides makes you look incredibly dumb

So he's finally blaming Toney for a very obvious and colossally stupid mistake, eh? Came a day later than it should have.

That's the thing - I could almost be OK with it had it happened last week.

But this?

Good grief, they look ****ing foolish and are absolutely getting dragged in the media and on socials.
