No.

 

If two players are determined to intentionally have committed fouls, there is a 15 yard penalty and the clock  resets to what it was before the ball was,snapped.

 

Good in theory but the NFL stepped up and changed the rule years ago.

but jamming a player takes time off the clock as they have to run a route.  Okay, no more "holding," but we should have jammed Kelcie and Hill.  


Agreed but let’s end the intentional holding argument. 
 

I would have liked to see the Bills drop 11 into coverage. Mahomes would have had nowhere to throw the ball and when the clock winds towards zero bring some of the players you dropped at him. Allow him one play.

 

There was more than one way to skin that cat tonight and the Bills didn’t do any of them.

yeah, no worries ending that, and glad to.  But bumping them does almost the same thing, even if the guy eventually catches it, the time it takes to get off tics away.  Yet we didn't.

I get it.  I'm not literally saying to maul them - but absolutely I'm grabbing Kekce and Hills jersey the whole way and dare the refs to call that.  Which they wouldn't.
