The question that needs to be answered: Was XL’s Lateral by Design?

[Proudiddy]

I’m really hoping the answer is yes.

[Kuhndog94]

Of course it was. XL Designed it in his head right before he threw the ball to Rico. 

[Donald LaFell]

I would really hope so because that was the worst lateral in franchise history

Can someone link the play?

Not designed but Rico did call for the ball per Canales.

I’m glad someone asked, and glad DC had that answer.  That’s a relief.  My fear was XL just pitched it to him without any knowledge from dowdle beforehand.  In this case, I appreciate the attempt and am thankful we were able to salvage that FG out of that drive.  It was the point differential in the win.

Even if Rico was calling for it, it’s still on XL for actually trying to lateral it to him, just so dumb

Yeah, that makes a huge difference.

I wouldn’t advise it, but Rico did have space when he called for it.  But as we saw, that’s why you generally don’t do it.

He watched Varsity Blues last night and was trying the hook and ladder trying to get a date to prom with Miss Davis. 

[WUnderhill]

There’s no way. Where he caught the ball was like 5 yards ahead of where he ended up lateraling and he appeared to be trying to get upfield initially.

I don’t care if his mama was calling for the ball, just hold on and go to the ground dude.
