I finally got a chance to rewatch part of the game including the kickoff that left us all scratching our heads. After watching, and watching the slo mo replay - there is no way that was ever intended to be a full kick that was “missed”. You can tell from his motion and effort that it was meant to be either a squib kick or onsides kick.

My guess is CKS is covering for either a bad decision or a missed call by the kicker/ST coach. Not that it matters but I thought it was interesting he played that off as “he just missed it”.

I couldn’t find a vid on YouTube but go back and look at it now in slow motion and judge for yourself.

You presume too much, the miss hit didn't have to be for a touch back, could have meant to be a pop up behind the line.

I watched the presser and Kiby said it was something, but said it didn’t go the way they wanted it to go, but didn’t want to say what it was… gamesmanship either way and I think its great.

Very much appears they saw something and tried it. Ended up hitting a guy. He definitely intended to do something not normal.

Gotcha….I could’ve sworn he played it off like a miss in a regular kickoff. Like I said, no big deal but when I was watching the replay … WTF?
