My guess is that Mustafa had a slightly bad angle and was in the perfect position for Mahomes' shoulder to hit him square.

That was a perfect example of old school coach-speak in action. And you're GONNA see that in practice tapes for HS and College players.

Mustafa was hitting dudes HARD the whole game. Coming downfield aggressively and smoking dudes.
On that play, since the game sure looked over, he didn't come in hot. He came in a little high and almost like he didn't think there was really a shot to prevent the TD so he didn't stay at 100%.
And got his ass posterized. And ultimately he may have been right - had he hit PM at 110%, Patrick probably still gets in. But it looked to me like Mustafa didn't play through the whistle at 100% and he got wrecked because of it.
