The most ridiculous Mahomes story yet. (With a request.)
Collinsworth and Sherman have a podcast together, which they post to YouTube, and this week they had Jon Gruden on. Pretty solid listen.

Sherman tells a story about Super Bowl LIV. According to Collinsworth, he told it before, but I've never heard it before.

Just... go to 33:45 of this video.

Sherman saw Tyreek Hill lining up on the numbers on a play, diagnosed it as a slant route, and got off the line of scrimmage. Didn't want to play Tyreek tight only to have him escape on a slant never to be caught.

Sherman backs off the line of scrimmage, sees the route develop and reads Mahomes. He sees Mahomes going for the slant.

He jumps it. He's in perfect position. Mahomes is finished winding back and is bringing his arm forward. He figures it's a pick with some serious yardage going back the other way.

Mahomes sees Sherman, and CHANGES THE TRAJECTORY OF THE THROW MID PITCH to put more air under it and adjust its destination so that Sherman has now overrun the route, and Mahomes airs it past Sherman and Tyreek runs it down.

Mahomes didn't pump fake and throw again. He didn't get a full throw -- this wasn't when he was winding up. Sherman said that as Mahomes' arm was coming forward, he caught Sherman and adjusted where he was throwing the ball.

That is absolutely stupidly ridiculous. Like, I'm not even sure I can do that in the backyard with a baseball with any accuracy whatsoever. Mahomes is doing it in the Super Bowl to a Hall of Fame CB.

Just, wow.

My request: Can anybody locate what play this is? Where in the game it happened? Gif it up?

Also, it sure sounds like Sherman is a Raider next year.

I don't know how old this Collinsworth interview is, but Sherman was bringing this play up on GMF type shows this past season when he was called on to talk QB/MVP/Mahomes/etc.

If any of those mid-fall GMF-type segments with Sherman are still up, they may have rolled the play in question in the background.

Reid mentioned the Sherman story in some of those mid-fall PCs, and Mellinger referenced it in a mid-season article on Mahomes' greatness.

This literal interview came out yesterday, but Collinsworth did tell Sherman "man you gotta tell Gruden about the slant play" so he's clearly told the story before.

I never heard it.

It's got to be the first play in this video. In the interview, Sherman mentions that Tyreek's knee was down as it was in this video. There's not really a good view of what Mahomes is doing though. At least it will give you an idea of when the play happened.

It's the second play. Not quite as glamorous as he makes it out to be.

Huh.

I've seen recordings of myself playing sports and it always feels more dynamic and immediate in person than it is when you watch. Lots of nuances that get lost on screen.

I also always feel like I'm moving so fast when I play, but then I'll watch the video and I'll be shocked at how slow myself and everybody else on the field is actually moving.

It seems really subtle but Sherman was definitely jumping the slant. Kudos to tyreek too for cutting off the route.

I was having a really hard time understanding what Anthony Sherman was talking about until I realized it was Richard Sherman.

Gruden outright tampering on a podcast. That's pretty dumb.

That's a great interview -- regardless if you like these guys or not - they do LOVE football. Sherman is a high IQ player and you could see Gruden light up when Sherman was talking defensive schemes ... could easily see Richard Sherman in the booth in a couple years.
