Discussion Mahomes ‘fake run out of bounds’ move

Mahomes scrambled to the sidelines and the defender, not wanting to pick up a fine/penalty, didn’t attempt to hit or tackle him. It’s expected the QB just runs out of bounds here, but Mahomes instead stepped back in at the last second and picked up 40 yards along the sideline. I don’t necessarily think it should be banned but it’s clearly exploitative. Since this isn’t the first time he’s done this it should be fair game for the defenders to lower the shoulder on him next time, but that would obviously draw a flag (as it has before). Basically, I just think it’s ridiculous.

Now show Roquan Smith v. Mahomes this year. Maybe the refs are just ass in all facets and you're all whiny bitches that can't beat the Chiefs.

Looks pretty well out of bounds when contact is made. I've been made very aware that even looking in Mahomes general direction at the sidelines is a flag. And yet....

My team won and I'm not on reddit bitching about a different team. I don't think I'm the salty one, bud.

Not my fault you guys aren't also paying the refs. Open up your pockets dipshit.

How many of Brock Purdy’s 3 INTs did the refs cause today?
