Share this: The Kansas City Chiefs earned a convincing win Sunday night, trouncing the Denver Broncos 33-10. While the Chiefs’ victory seemingly never was in doubt, the team added a little insurance late in the fourth quarter with a touchdown pass … from a nose tackle. Dontari Poe lined up as a wildcat quarterback and threw a flawless jump-pass touchdown to tight end Demetrius Harris. Take a look at the hilarious play. At 6-foot-3 and 346 pounds, it’s safe to assume Poe is one of the largest “quarterbacks” to throw a touchdown in NFL history.

Al Horford Puts Coal In Kristaps Porzingis’ Stocking With Monster Dunk
Share this: Everyone’s exchanging gifts this holiday season, and Al Horford had an extra special present for Kristaps Porzingis on Christmas Day. The Boston Celtics forward took center stage at Madison Square Garden in the third quarter of his team’s matchup with the New York Knicks. Horford took the ball at the top of the key and saw only Porzingis in his path. So, the All-Star big man drove the lane and proceeded to put the 7-foot-3 Latvian on a poster. We’d imagine this poster would look good in Horford’s living room. Horford turned 30 years old this summer, but this mammoth dunk proves he still has plenty of pep left in his step.
