Why Chiefs’ Skyy Moore is taking too much blame for Mahomes’ interception vs. Packers
Kansas City Chiefs receiver Skyy Moore has been widely criticized for slowing down his route on a game-changing Patrick Mahomes interception in KC’s 27-19 road loss to the Green Bay Packers.
In this video, KC Star reporter Jesse Newell and Brett Taveau (author of the Chiefs book “Unpacking Greatness” and a longtime high school offensive coordinator) take a closer look at the coverage and why Moore might’ve throttled down on the fourth-quarter snap.
Add it all up — while considering the replay and postgame comments — and it’s likely the Chiefs’ second-year receiver is taking too much of the blame for a play he appeared (on second glance) to read correctly.
