I laughed at the couple dancing to the on-hold music because I've been on hold to that same godawful music a gazillion times.

Yeah I'm not aware of a single bad call that went against the chiefs. I am aware of a few that went against Philly. Still waiting to see a replay that clearly showed evidence to overturn that d smith sideline catch. Apparently it exists

I’d agree, but they love Hurts just as much. Could’ve been not called and either way they get a great story.

There were a couple of questionable calls. The fumble return called back saying it was an incomplete pass. The completion on the sideline when he juggled the ball. Both of those looked sketchy to me.

And that’s my NE reference. Mahomes could play that game 10 times and win 7 with absolutely no help from refs. He’s definitely a generational QB and I don’t root against him. But when you combine that with some seriously questionable calls, it’s nearly indefensible. It’s why many tired of the Pats. But yes, they completely dominated the second half.

Imo the first fumble was caused by the chiefs cheating a false start out of the refs. I didn't really see movement on the line of the eagles there, it looked to me like the whole KC D line jumped up and wildly pointed, THEN the refs through the flag. Without that false start, that fumble doesnt happen

The rules guy is brought in to define plays, almost like a Supreme Court. Both of those were the right call. Now he also was fine with the Hold at the end, but had also been clear that he didn’t see indisputable evidence in the Smith catch. Not only does that potentially iwipe out 7(net -4), it delays the drive and gives Philly less time at the end of H1 after a stop. One of those going right quite possibly is the difference in the game.

KC just damn lucky. Gets a phantom holding on the biggest play of the game? Refs were letting the 2 teams play hard all night then call that ticky tack crap? Awful.
If Bills-Cincy game was played, KC would’ve been on the road for at least Championship game, KC lost 2 both this year. Again Lucky.
And Kelce is a f*chwad, is the idiot ever humble? Never heard from the clown when KC loses. Ok rant over, back to your regularly scheduled programming.

It was a FS start for sure. The issue I had, as you pointed out, was that it was basically called at the request of the defense. Not sure I’ve ever seen that, and no one questioned why the guys watching the LOS for that very infraction, didn’t make the call.
But the slip on 2nd down on the stupid paint(which both sides played on) actually was probably the bigger culprit. Should’ve been 1st right there.

Yeah maybe I was biased by that. Most of what I remember was the whole defense pointing and then the ref running from the left of the screen to throw the flag

Probably wouldn’t have slipped if he just went for the first instead of trying to turn it into a bigger gain.

Travis Kelce is exactly what fathers of 7-14 year olds battle daily to keep their kids from becoming. I’m all for excitement and passion, but he’s a complete embarrassment.
