The view of where the winners will celebrate come Wednesday!

Chiefs Baby!

 

[Ten Bears]

He admitted it was a penalty. Good on him for taking the high road. The main headline of the game is this call. Next you’re gonna try to tell me the halftime show was great.

The halftime show happened, just like the holding. Both penalties

 

[Flyjunky]

Any time you grab the jersey they call holding, the player has admitted he held himself…..

Where did I say it wasn’t holding?

The statement was it was called 100% of the time, no it’s not, not even close.

 

[Azone]

The halftime show sucked.

When you pull a jersey you get a flag.

I honestly thought the officiating was terrible both ways tonight but I'm a referee so what do I know. I'm unbiased and honestly thought the chiefs got hosed on several bad calls or no calls numerous times prior to the ending drive. Humans error... go figure. The team that played a cleaner game won but I'm not sure they were the better team. Guessing if Andy was coaching on the other side the Eagles would have won. To me he is the real story... fantastic coach.

 

[NRA4LIFE]

Hey, Lebron James said it was a bad call. So therefore, let it be written in stone "IT WAS A BAD CALL" .

 

[MuleDeerMike]

I'm looking forward to the day where refs are completely eliminated from the NFL and AI robots are implemented to officiate. Same for MLB. Seems sac relig I know but I don't care anymore, human refs need to be eliminated from professional sports. I don't believe the "they're part of the game" argument. Theres a right call and a wrong call on every play, period. Let Elon build the NFL zebra striped robots.

 

[ddd-shooter]

Great second half adjustment by Reid and the chiefs. Great game by both sides. I felt like the chiefs had all the momentum after the punt, but still woulda liked to see the last two minutes be something other than let them score, take a knee, penalty, etc

Ah yes, Sarahs Busssssssssssssssh

I thought it was a good game. I thought the call at the end was a little nit picky. The two that annoyed me were first, the Eagles player catches the ball, turns to run and is hit losing the ball. Called a no catch. Second, the Eagles guy catches the ball along the side lines and has the ball and a foot down for roughly one millisecond, yet that is a catch. Two different situations I understand. The calls may have been correct per the rules, not debating whether the calls were correct. It seemed the rules are inconsistent on what constitutes a catch.
I got to talk to Eric Bienemy a few times back in college when we had a class together. He always seemed like a really good guy so I was happy to see him on the winning side. Next KC head coach?

 

[Throwin Darts]

Mahomes put the ball where that wide receiver would have been standing if he wasn't held. Can't not call that.

 

[Doghed]

If its holding early in the first quarter then its holding late in the fourth quarter. It doesn't matter if its week one or the super bowl.

Bradbury admitted it was a hold. He did so because he knows there are probably a half dozen angles that show it and he doesn't want to look as silly as all the folks claiming it wasn't holding.

It wasn't the jersey tug as he ran away, it was the first grab that impeded the his ability to spin out of the inside route. DB's do it about every time they're in that situation. Saying refs don't call it that close to the line of scrimmage is ridiculous. The reason DB's hold near the line is because they know its difficult for the officials to see in that spot and if they get caught its only a 5 yard penalty instead of something much more down field.

The officials aren't the problem.

Eagles lead the league in sacks but got ZERO last night? That's a problem.
Fumbling the ball? That's a problem.
Being in a close game late in the 4th against Reid and Mahomes? That's a BIG problem.
The play calling at the end was brilliant.

 

[jimh406]

It was a penalty that shouldn't have been called. Fwiw, there are calls that "could" be made on almost every play.

Of course, KC got a few to go their way in the AFC Championship, too. That's ok, but I'd prefer watching games that aren't decided by the black and white jerseys.

 

[Thunt22]

Not play related but wtf was up with that field last night ??
