Yesterday's Sunday Night Football game saw the Buffalo Bills dismantle the San Francisco 49ers 35-10 on a snowy field, with one touchdown coming on a spur-of-the-moment lateral by wide receiver Amari Cooper to quarterback Josh Allen.
Too many commentators have forgotten about the hook and ladder play, thinking it’s a misstatement of hook and lateral.
They can be different, but I think most of the time, it is a misstatement. The game and its language evolves, not always for the better.
