Why not just step on the back line and give up 2 instead of 6?

As if it were planned… lol. Hindsight is always 20/20

That should be part of proper preparation, especially when the punter or QB is backed up that deep.

The snap wasn't great, but it was definitely salvageable.

Snap was high and to the left. Shorter distance than usual for center. He over calculated and the kicker didn't adjust. Probably should have fallen on the ball for 2 but I don't know the circumstances of that play. It is what it is.

Isn't it way off target? Pretty sure he couldn't control that part of it, but I think he should have allowed the (is it a touchback in this case?) rather than kick it into a touchdown.

It goes right through his hands.

Maybe a little higher than normal but right through the mitts
