Video: Matthew Stafford is the secret king of the no-look pass

The no-look pass in the NFL was undoubtedly popularized by Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. The world oooh’d and ahhh’d as Mahomes made precise passes while looking in a completely different direction. For most fans in amazement, it was the first time they’d seen anything like that. Hell, even NFL.com packaged the play as “unveiling” the no-look pass, like it was something Mahomes invented. Just google “NFL no-look pass” and see the Mahomes-dominated results.

It’s bold. It’s dangerous. It’s exciting—especially for a young MVP quarterback to be taking the league by storm like that.
