Mahomes hit by Robinson was correctly flagged; defender landed with most of his weight.

Mahomes was hit by defender Chop Robinson in a play that drew a roughing the passer flag. The source analyzes the contact frame-by-frame and concludes the flag was correct. The source argues that Robinson's single hand bracing 'does a ****ty job of it' and that Mahomes' chest compression and arm movement indicate Robinson landed with 'most' of his weight on the QB, meeting the strict liability standard for roughing the passer. The source states: 'I think the hit on Mahomes is pretty close to textbook on the flopping rule.' The official's positioning to the side of the play provided clear sightlines to throw the flag.
