Complacent? It's a pointless Twitter poll, not a two score lead on the Patriots. *edit* Another 1200 votes, up to 76% Allen. He'll be fine. Edited March 26, 2019 by 1ManRaid 1
dubs Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 I thought the heading meant a 9 yard scramble by Matt Barkley! Ha. ? 2
MacGyver Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) Hmm, that's a close call. I think I'd have to give my vote to the no look pass. I know it's not as athletic as the hurdle, but it shows more mastery of the passing game, which is what you want from an NFL franchise QB. Edited March 28, 2019 by MacGyver 1
Captain Hindsight Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Just noticed this for the first time, but check out Zay Jones reaction to the hurdle He's probably saying "oh snap!"
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) ... he was looking, he just didn't turn his head. Mahomes was too much of a super star until the AFCCG maybe that will have mellowed the MahomesFanatics down Edited March 28, 2019 by ShadyBillsFan 1

I am not saying it isnt difficult per se, but with the reps these guys have in practice, the difficulty would be much lower than trying to hurdle a 6'5" lb (which people even if they practice may never be able to do) 1

MiltonWaddams Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 I was at the Minni game and when Allen hurdled Barr, the Vikes fans around me were going nuts. “That’s my quarterback “ was all I uttered. 1
RyanC883 Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 these Kc fans are insane with claims that hurdling a pro bowl LB “happens every day.”. The no look pass was nice, but Mahommes sis look right before looking away, and it’s a common play. Big Ben, Rodgers and more have done it before.

ProcessAccepted Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Watching GMFB and you can tell they're hoping Mahomes pulls it out. Hope we ruin their day. Side note: Kay Adams also was going on about Rosen having the worst situation of any QB in the league ?. She did concede that he had a stud running back. He also had Larry Fitzgerald. No way his situation was worse that Allen's except Allen was able to make things happen. 1
IgotBILLStopay Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 A lot of things go into making a completion - not just the QB. The correctly drawn up play, the receiver running the right route etc. Also, from the second angle it is clear the receiver is coming from where Mahomes was looking. So he knows the play is developing as designed. Look or no-look, his job is to get the ball to a spot, which he did. I have seen it a few time. Actually, Jeff Garcia was a master at that. https://ninerswire.usatoday.com/2018/12/14/kyle-shanahan-says-patrick-mahomes-no-look-pass-wasnt-unique/ Allen's play, on the other hand, is just pure instinct one on one against a great defender. You want to vote for MVP, vote Mahomes. But you want to vote for the jaw-dropping play of the year - Allen's hurdle any time.

Both are great plays, I guess I just lean towards the play that showcases passing from a QB vs. rushing. Edited March 28, 2019 by MacGyver
