I don’t know about craftier, but the execution was definitely smoother, Mahomes made it

If the receiver dropped it would it be ruled a fumble?

How? A shovel pass is still a "pass", is it not?

sorry, brain fart. Yes, if it is dropped, it is an incomplete pass because it was thrown FORWARD. It is thrown in a

No. A forward underhand pass is still a forward pass. It's a dead ball if

No, simply put: pass is anything forward. Lateral is anything backward.

Neither were on the mark all that great. Credit Masen for making the tough snag

Was it really a shovel pass? I thought shovel passes were thrown from the chest. Zach threw it underhand.

Perhaps I don't know the precise nomenclature. To me it's a shovel pass.

Goliath

Seems like we’re entering new territory with different types of QB throws.

If it wasn't a forward pass, then what was it? Forward laterals are illegal.

It was a forward pass.

What’s a forward lateral?

zsmooth

It would have been a forward lateral if Wilson had crossed the line of scrimmage

Memphis ran the same play today

mudpupper

10/17/20 6:16pm

Not the same play. Memphis ran it to an RB coming across the play

Did you know Utah invented the shovel pass?

TADOW

10/17/20 6:28pm

Yep, by none other than Pons and Fleischmann. Those guys could do it all.

No, that was the scat shovel.

A.K.A. The pooper scooper or the west concourse special.

That’s what happens when you can’t do anything else

Doman ran that play as OC for BYU. Jamaal Williams had many big plays with it.

10/17/20 6:33pm

I don't remember it ever being ran so deftly/craftily.

Got a link?

Goliath

10/17/20 7:14pm

I agree, I don't remember ever seeing it as a no look pass, sideways like that

That was a wickedly deceptive play. LOVED it!
