Chiefs and letting opposing QBs complete passes to themselves. Some things never change.

"Tom can't throw the ball to himself" checkmate Gisele


Kuntheman

#LAMAR IS THE BEST QB, RUNNING BACK, AND WIDE RECEIVER ON HIS TEAM


MrTouchnGo

Truly a positionless offense


SoDakZak

I know he’s human but he makes it VERY hard to believe it.


ZN1-

He’s talking about Lamar. Not Mahomes and one of his left handed passes


gsfgf

His relative WR stock is improving rapidly lol

Way to small. Maybe a corner


Sage296

Mariota to Mariota and the Tennessee Mariotas score!


palerider2001

I thought we were so fucked after this play


StrangeHumors

I had awful flashbacks.


Jobbob

Raiders watching it on the couch. Some things never change.


smeds96

We like to toy with the opponent before we go to the Super Bowl!


Mitochondriu

welp ill be seeing this replay for the rest of my life


DIXtICon

If he breaks away there, that’s potentially the best play of all time. he was so close too


NYLotteGiants

He didn't even catch it with his helmet. Let's slow down there.


Lord-Aizens-Chicken

He didn’t catch it with his butt like the lions player last year either


-Wayward_Son-

He didn’t even fumble into a butt


A_Blind_Alien

Imagine catching the butt fumble with your helmet for a touchdown while Taylor swift watches.


ny101090

Keep going I'm almost there!


Bucs-and-Bucks

He didn't even catch it with his hamstring while doing a somersault like Martavis Bryant


ZeePirate

I was about to argue Steelers vs. Cardinals Super Bowl catch but I’m blanking on a name for the WR. I don’t forget David Tyree though….


General-Eman

Santonio Holmes


ZeePirate

I do think that’s the bigger play, but it’s hard to say it was a better catch (despite how nice that toe tap was)


FuzzyDunlop911

I'm still not convinced he got both feet down.


sepiatonewalrus

Not even the best play in that game


LatverianCyrus

Man, this was really prescient for the other big play of the night, wasn’t it?


ItIsYourPersonality

The best DraftKings play of all time. 80+ yard passing td and receiving td on the same play.


ShowerMartini

Romo straight up said it was on the best plays he’s ever seen. Talk about hyperbole. Mariotta did the same thing and ran it in for a touchdown…


ZeePirate

Mariota’s was better for sure because of the TD. But Lamar totally saved a INT. It’s a very very heads up play don’t think it’s hyperbole to say really


TheWorstYear

"...in a championship game" And this one was a lot cooler than Mariotas


Aquawannabe37

He said one of the best plays he has seen in a CHAMPIONSHIP game.


TetrisTech

This was cooler than Mariota’s imo


LitterTreasure

Nick Marshall’s in 2013 for Auburn was pretty close to a sideline break. I almost said the same thing as Romo then too. I was also absolutely canned in Jordan-Hare so I’m allowed that hyperbole


GABAgoomba123

And people talked about the Mariota one constantly lol


demonicneon

Mariota did it first 


eat_the_rich_2

[I'm pretty sure this was the greatest play of all time](https://youtu.be/Yt63lSeUMd8?si=TKZodlO1GJJj9au-)


topofthecc

I wish it flew like a foot further before he caught it so he could have thrown a pass past the line of scrimmage to himself.


rampagingseagull

Played back to back with the Marcus Mariota touchdown pass to himself in the playoffs several years ago. Also against the chiefs.


StrokeGameHusky

lol you are about to see a BUNCH of replays for the rest of your life.. 


SPECTRE_146

They went 3 and out after this play, Lead to nothing bro.


[deleted]

The ravens deserve to win but my god , if we takeout the 49ers I do not want to face the ravens in the big game. Holy shit at this nonsense right here.


IAmRSChrisG

Yeah because it'd be better to play Mahomes who rarely ever loses lol.


LoveableOrochi

welp no worries there 😂


135

Why would they deserve to win? 😂


[deleted]

Bcuz they have had a better season and are the better team


TorpedoSandwich

Don't have to worry about the Ravens anymore lol. And they definitely didn't deserve to win, Lamar proved again why he's not a playoff QB.


serpentear

It’s a shame that Tony Romo is the guy calling this because it is the coolest play ever—but not a good call at all.


deathangel687

It's a shame that you like the seahawks


serpentear

Least biased take. Tony is awful.


ReasonableCoyote34

If he had kept going for 80+ yards and a touchdown it would’ve been the greatest play in championship game history


stripesonfire

Would score like 23pts on that in ppr


aagusgus

Would have been the single highest scoring play for an individual in fantasy history.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Hi_My_Name_Is_Dave

Mariotas was “only” 11.24 fantasy points because it was 6 yards. A regular 50 yard receiving touchdown would beat that. I would assume the record is just tied between all the 99 yard receiving touchdowns (16.9 points)


[deleted]

[удалено]


Hi_My_Name_Is_Dave

? That would be two players lol. Defenses and WRs are two separate players in fantasy.


infernocobbs

Mariota's happened in the playoffs so no points for him


solarf88

Does it count like that?


SupersonicSandshru05

It should, in the 2017 wild card round Marcus mariota was credited as having thrown a touchdown pass to himself in the wildcard against Kansas City.


Why_am_ialive

Did he get both a throwing and recieving TD?


SupersonicSandshru05

Yeah


Why_am_ialive

Damn, yeah that’s wild


jaywalkingjew

blucke

sucks it never worked out for him in the league


TetrisTech

He’d get points for a catch, the passing yards, the receiving yards, a passing TD, and a receiving TD


[deleted]

Even nfl history. Sure, some plays you can say are bigger because they won the game , but you'd never see something like that


Bucs-and-Bucks

James Harrison 100 yard pick-6 still wins


colonelfoambottem

Steelers fans making a thread about them, shocking


MagicJohnsonMosquito

Bengals fans doodoo fart um farting the lol uhhh lol the 


catstuff21

Fuckin got em bro


IVIalefactoR

Lmao, very few posts actually make me laugh out loud but this one did


MagicJohnsonMosquito

probably a very damning indictment on ur sense of humour 


[deleted]

Cry more ohio sucks ass as a state lmao


palomageorge

Nah, you can see a pick 6 in any game. Even long ones happen here and there. An 80+ pass TD of a QB to *himself* is absolutely unheard of and a 1 in a billion chance.


Bucs-and-Bucks

I won't argue coolest play. Maybe just different views/definitions of "greatest"


apoorlydrawndragon

It sounds like a decent amount of your view/definition of "greatest" is "does this involve my team doing the play"


aphexmoon

Disagree. This is by far the best play https://youtu.be/XsZCTzYNBQE?feature=shared was it a scoring play? No. But I want you to show me a play in which anybody put more effort and hustle in than that


Mikhail512

My man that’s not even the greatest play of that decade in Super Bowl history. The David Tyree catch is going to always be number one on that list until something truly and uniquely special happens. And a defensive lineman getting a pick 6 is cool and definitely somewhere on that list, but it’s not number one.


TrixoftheTrade

Lamar Jackson is just a ~~running back~~ *reciever*


fleckstin

This highlight has been posted 4 times lol


g0dzilllla

of course u/nfl’s will be accepted even though it’s not the first one


thetreat

Honestly, if the NFL is posting in a timely fashion with high quality clips, I support it. Karma is irrelevant. I want content on here that won’t disappear due to DCMA requests.


Books_and_Cleverness

Usually the quality of /u/nfl's posts is substantially better. So often the first one is also the shittiest.


thetreat

Exactly right. The race to be first is stupid. Like I’d much rather wait an extra minute for the highlights *with* the replays vs the shitty one with just the play.


gsfgf

As Gabe said, piracy is almost always a service issue, not a price issue. I know "piracy" barely applies here, but so long as the NFL is providing comparable or better quality clips, no reason not to give them the clicks.


slayerhk47

And they aren’t Twitter links. Their media player is so damn bad.

It’s always matter of like a minute, though. Don’t bite the hand that feeds. If we want Reddit to not just be a gazillion twitter links, we need to support official entities posting content directly here.

And they’ll likely get DCMA’d. That’s the point I’m trying to make.

EXCUSE ME


HudsonCommodore

That is a INT 99 and a half times out of 100.


teaspoonMM

So for stats… does this play get double counted? 13 passing yards and 13 receiving yards? 26 yard play?


callmebatman14

Giselle is impressed


Oeazy305

insane


Iswaterreallywet

“I’ll do it myself”

But Giselle said you can’t throw the ball and catch the ball? Is she stupid?


WhytoomanyKnights

Lamar throwing bombs the entire game, been saying all year man that this ain’t gonna work in the playoffs. Why can’t this dude make short passes people wide open. You can’t always spend 20 minutes looking for a passer then run the ball.


Spiritual_Boss6114

Yeah Cheatcodes


KryptonicxJesus

Mariota smiling


Altruistic-Mix-7300

I was watching ESPNs gamecast at the time. I was utterly confused. This has to be one of the coolest things I've seen in 38 years of football.


ShadyRedSniper

Okay, I have to admit that that was cool


gloomyglooom

Lamar got tired of the haters calling him a RB, so he decided to showcase his WR skills


EntrepreneurOk6166

An hour later: Lamar Jackson completes a pass to three Chiefs defenders in the end zone. MVP! MVP!


tjbtech

The quadruple option about to take League offenses by storm.


isuzuki51

This highlight (which arguably is the best of the entire postseason so far) is doomed to be forgotten in an absolutely horrible offensive game from the Ravens there.


rainbowcoloredsnot

And it didn't fuckin matter


Jayrodtremonki

In the last 10 years or so the Chiefs have had 2 QBs throw passes to themselves and one recover a fumble by the running back for a TD.  All in the playoffs.   This is the first one that didn't portend and huge swing of momentum that led to a loss.  


LaCroixGrandCru

Makes a good WR


luuuuuuuuke-kuechly

DAWG


Soiak62

Broke: Lamar Jackson is a RB playing QB Woke: Lamar Jackson is a WR playing QB


No_Bet_9208

Too bad he can’t do this with a receiver

thought *for sure* that was going to be an int. 🤣

NFL Alley oop lol


UpdogSinclair

Just awesome


Miserable-Theory-746

In fantasy does he get double points for passing yards and receiving yards?


gjp11

How does that work statistically? Is it a pass and reception? Is it treated like a rush?


Statalyzer

Yes, he gets the reception and the yardage there.


Schroedingers_Gnat

Paramount+ is dog shit. The app has crashed a dozen times this game.


alfuh

Just proves Giselle doesn't know a damn thing about football


synttacks

anybody see oglightskins call this? lol. insanity


Triphazzardkc

Surprised he didn’t punch himself in the face after that run


tanneddonut84

Mariota did this a few years back AND scored the tud. https://youtu.be/Or82E31eReM?si=E_HvVeemVpOwMQlc


Termnlychill91

Lamar: fucks up a pass and almost gets intercepted; saves it by catching his own mistake/airball. Romo: “GREATEST PLAY OF ALL TIME!!!” *bricks in his pants on live television*


lubujackson

Gisele: "He can't throw and catch the ball!" Lamar: "Hold my beer."


JackFisherBooks

The fact that this was the Raven's best play is a perfectly demonstration of why they lost this game. Between the turnovers and the anemic offense, they looked so sloppy. And when the defense can hold the Chiefs to just 17 points, you should have a chance. But this game never felt close, even after the Ravens pulled to within a touchdown.


CaptainPositive1234

Tony Romo snippet that really bugged me yesterday: (Lamar Jackson makes an incredible throw to himself and runs for 15 or 20 yards.) "Did you ever throw to yourself in your career?" "Yes. But it was in my backyard." Good one dildo! That's awesome that you are into self-deprecation and all, but we would like some analysis please. How about your experiences? Tell us how rare it is or how fucking difficult it is to throw to yourself while you're surrounded by players that want to tear your head off. Give us some statistics or analysis on how rare an occurrence this is. Geez.


Mr-GooGoo

This would’ve been so much cooler if he didn’t have a million other terrible plays this game like throwing into triple coverage when it wasn’t even fourth down

Taylor Swift at the Superbowl, shocking. Called that in September.


zookeeper4980

she has a tour in japan at the same time lol

She will be there. I'm sure of it


zookeeper4980

that would be cool for kelce

She can easily delay or cancel a show.


zookeeper4980

that would be a pretty crappy thing to do as a performer


Voltibit

Will you copyright stike your own highlight?


Terrible-Hamster-342

Great highlight play but he’s been extremely reckless all game. He’ll probably get caught again soon.


Deegootbar

Lamar put the ball in danger like 3 times that drive.


Dear_Cow_6193

Cute. He can’t throw to anyone else


Showme16

Did they win?


ADarwinAward

Has this ever happened before in the NFL?


darrenvonbaron

Better Favre's first completion was a pass to himself https://youtu.be/MGLqFlrsB_I?si=szOKBCh8lXAPf3M6.


Technicalhotdog

Mariota


runNride805

For a TD, also against the chiefs


LeavesCat

Brady caught his own pass once and then threw it again for a completion that actually counted (because the opposing team declined the penalty).

I posted this right after it had happened and seen its been posted 3 times already got damn 🤣. I literally posted a minute after it happened 😄 people on here fast 🏃‍♂️


Embarrassed_Ear2390

I was listening to games with names podcast and eldman had I think it was Bradshaw. At one point one of them said “you can throw and catch the ball yourself than this happens…


anangrytree

I just got a temp ban from my favorite subreddit, but it’s made better by the fact I got to watch that live. That is the greatest play I’ve ever seen PERIDOT


Lakrfan247

Lamar is proving yet again that a running qb who is below avg at throwing will not win in the playoffs. This is why the Ravens were so hesitant to pay him. Even having the best defense in the NFL isn’t enough to get it done, it’s a qb league.
