MPT Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 2 minutes ago, Billz4ever said: How were the Chiefs gifted a win? Well let's see. There were 40 seconds left on the clock when the Bengals punted and the Chiefs got away with two obvious blocks in the back resulting in possession about 40 yards past where they should have started. Then they get away with 3 separate holds on the same play where the Bengals get called for a soft game-sealing penalty. And that's only a few minutes after the refs declined to call a more obvious roughing the passer on the Bengals' previous drive. So the Chiefs did absolutely nothing on their final drive (besides get away with obvious penalties) and were awarded a 45 yard field goal attempt to end the game. 2 1 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: And also how much easier it is to play football when you get away with penalties constantly.

So Mahomes scrambling for the first down and Cincy committing one of the dumbest penalties possible had nothing to do with it? 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahomes was only able to scramble because all of the pass rushers were being held. And he clearly flopped. 1 1 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMAO flop or no flop it's clearly a late hit out of bounds on a QB. And as far as the holding calls go, Chris Jones was being held all night long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not me. This was awesome to see the Bengals and their fans trash talk all week and get their own taste of what 13-seconds feels like. Smoke that Burrow, 2 Ints. Mixon another year older.

He was hit out of bounds. Everybody but you knows it was automatically a personal foul. How much money did you lose betting on the Bengals? I can't think of any other reason you're being so biased. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bermuda Triangle Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Seems pretty clear that the Chiefs used the yapping from the Bengals (and the Cinci mayor) as motivation. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
