Tim.
Nope, the ball can't get up under that cage, but it can get up under the chin guard. So you win the battle of Nit-Picking Words...Here's Your Sign !

This helmet, although it doesn't have an extended cage, looks to be no longer than my All-Star helmet's extended cage, which does allow for a Throat Protector.

I have never seen a Mask or Helmet that protected the throat. Nor have I seen a legitimately taught stance that places the bottom of the cage or chin guard against the chest, to protect the throat.
