Hardmans head was down because he knew the only way to beat the safety and get under the ball was to hit top speed and, last I checked, sprinters don’t look over their shoulders on the home stretch.
I'd have to watch it again but, IIRC, it looked like Mahomes could have put it near the pylon/sideline area for a TD.
Hardman is a dipshit but I'd say that was more of an inaccurate pass from Mahomes than anything Hardman fucked up on. Knowing what we know about him, it's just easy to laugh at him taking his eyes off the ball to try and accelerate- who does that? lol I don't think I have ever seen that before. [Reply]

I think he can actually track the ball pretty well. In that route Hardman beats his man, looks back at Mahomes and knows the ball is going to go deep his way, he drops his head and gets in sprint formation to get to a spot, and once he got a step on the safety he tracked the ball. The ball was too deep for Hardman or any other man. [Reply]

Yeah it wasn't a good throw. All in all though, I was pretty pleased with Hardman's production in the game. Same with Pringle and Robinson. [Reply]
