    You’re talking about the play where the Bills are allegedly over. This is the Chiefs play.

      Should I add context as a chiefs fan? Probably not.

      He was offside. It is hard for those lined up way out to judge where the line is, so they usually ask the refs. He did not ask that time. The refs apparently often give them a warning even when they don’t ask, but they did not. Because of that, offensive offsides is really rare.

      What is worse is the defense was offside on the next play and it was not called, which seems worse.

      But no one play loses a game. We had multiple other chances to score. Our receivers just suck this year.

      It probably doesn’t help that the wide receiver coach is new. He was both on a college team (I don’t believe ever played once) and got his coaching job thanks to who his dad is.

      The play calling is also uninspiring with offensive coach Naggy back at the helm.

      And Mahomes is playing tentative because he can’t trust his receivers to run routes or catch balls that hit their hands.

      We lost.

        I’ve been looking for an imaging showing the defense being over the line before the ball was snapped. Every image people share shows after, which is odd. Not saying he wasn’t. But I’d like to see it before the snap.
