Strobe posted:I don't think it's likely, I just think it's a lot more likely than pulling off a lateral bonanza on a kick return. My view is they're all like a 2% chance of success at best, but on a kick return at least you've got 10 other guys in much better position then on a regular pass attempt where you've got 6 worthless guys.

Intruder posted:pretty sure you can't which I'm pretty sure is the whole point of bouncing it on onside kicks Wikipedia says it has to be called while the ball is in-flight, but I don't see any restriction on if it was called before the ball bounces. I can't say I exactly expect the returner to signal literally as the ball is being kicked, but I still think he should have just fallen on it and given it to Mahomes.

Yeah, fair catch is off if the ball hits the ground

For a second I thought they were about to show the Swat team scooping up Elian Gonzales.

I dunno man this honestly feels like a huge reach at this point, the game was over I'd give better odds to a BBQ city miracle than a 90+ yard miracle TD pass

Kickoffs are always live balls, fair catch or not

I honestly trust the Chiefs receivers more than I trust the Chiefs return guys when the two don't overlap. Obviously we're not going to be able to explore what might have been, but I don't feel like putting it Mahomes's hands to try and make a play is a worse idea than what happened.

EDIT: I should clarify I'm not expecting a 95 yard Hail Mary bomb. In my ultimate fantasy it's Tyreek Hill mocking the entire opposing defense like the Cowboys game last year.

I know no time goes off the clock if the kicking team recovers and it's never touched.

Strobe posted:I learned something today. The dolphins play against NE last weekend was the longest play from scrimmage ever to win a game with no time remaining, so considering its literally never happened (and stuff like the music city miracle has happened) I don’t think it could be considered more likely. Anyway arguing which hypothetical miracle is more likely is kinda silly

"But it's Pat Mahomes" loses all meaning when you take into account that you're still counting on a short pass that turns into a crazy lateral situation anyway

The clock doesn't start until someone legally touches a live ball. That makes sense. But yeah, the Steelers called for a Fair Catch, let the ball hit the ground, the other team jumped on it.

Although you could just put him in on special teams in that case. We're all spending way too much time thinking about two different no hope plays.
