To me it is the short pass between the hash marks, many times right over the middle to a stationary receiver behind the defensive line but in front of the LBkrs. It is used all the time by many pro and college offenses, many of them top offenses, to get good yards on first down or a needed few yards on 3rd and short.
The first thing that makes it easier is the receiver is stationary. The second item is against Lbkrs in a zone the receiver just finds a soft spot and against man to man if the defensive player is at the receivers back then they are still wide open.
Does Kirk's offense use this pattern, not a lot, some and the reason probably is not wanting the high pass that gets tipped in the air. Too much chance for a turnover.
But if you practice it a lot you get the passing angle down and you end up with connections like Mahomes to Kelce.
Just watch how many teams use this play to get 4 yards and many more.
