and the ruling was defended by the NFL officiating expert during the broadcast. The picture above clearly shows it was not complete.

 

😞

 

I didn't hear them defend it. I'm pretty sure they all agreed it wasn't a catch.

I could be wrong  but I was referring to the NFL "eye in the sky" guy not the commentators

Not to justify the reffing, but that is a catch in my book. His left hand had total control of the ball all the way through, and the fact that it hit the ground is irrelevant given the Bert Emmanuel rule. Players make one handed catches all the time, and that’s basically what Kelce did there.

No offense, but I wouldn’t read “Dave McBride’s Book of Catches” in that case

You have no idea what was said throughout the game. But, sure...side with the guy who's racked up almost $120,000 in fines in two years, and punched Smith-Schuster. No doubt he's a victim. 

Right, I don't know what was said by any player during the game.  But I did see Mahomes taunt Branch after his TD run....after the whistle.  And I did see Smith-Schuster cheap shot Branch earlier in the game.

They didn't have zero penalties. A couple were declined. 

 

The refs obviously made a mistake on the Kelce "catch." Mistakes happen. I see them in every game I watch. 

 

When the Chiefs are on the wrong side of a 13-4 flagfest...crickets. Zero claims of "rigged." But when it's 4 flags to 2 in their favor, there's an obvious agenda. Funny how that works, eh?

 

 

Even in the 13-4 flagfest, they still had the most impactful ref-related decision that led directly to 7 points with the worst missed DPI since the Saints-Rams NFCCG. If people don’t see that the Chiefs get favorable reffing for like 5 seasons now, idk what to tell them.

Terry, the “rules analyst” on the broadcast said it was a catch right away.

The Chiefs look flippin scary to me right now! Might be the best team they've had. Of course long way to go, and injuries can and will happen. But, 3 guys under 4.3 plus Rice plus Mahomes plus that defense.

No love for the 5-1 Colts?

They've done a great job and caught everyone by surprise but if they play KC in the playoffs I think the Chiefs experience would see them through comfortably.

good thread here:

 

 

 

the hold on the Mahomes run immediately preceded the 4th down TD pass to Worthy.  So yeah, kind of a big missed call.

What was the worst missed DPI since Saints-Rams again?

 

I'm pretty sure it was actually 15 flags, with a few declined. In a 3 pt, last-second loss, in which the opponent was set up with 1st and goal at the 1 with 30 seconds remaining. 

 

I'm sure your fans would've left that game saying "they were clearly trying to help us tonight!"

Thanks for uploading that.

Same guy who was taunting Branch after a 1-yard TD run?  GTFO, Mahomes.

Didn’t he taunt him during the game? Literally ‘between the whistles’.

Nothing to see here. These are not the penalties you’re looking for. 
 

It is quite clear the league favors certain teams.   Pegula needs to donate healthily to the competition committee.

I guess you didn’t watch the game? Trevor Lawrence threw a pick at like the 10 yard line where his WR got knocked clean off his feet when he went to make his cut.

 

Also there were other weird ref things in this game.

- Lawrence fumbled at the one inch line, (Not a bad call per se but lucky for the Chiefs bc the refs wouldn’t have overturned whatever the call was because it was so close).

- KC scored a TD on third down but had a flag for OPI (probably was a legit penalty, contact was 2-3 yards from the LOS). Mahomes yelled at the ref and then they picked up the flag. Terrible optics.

 

It isn’t just about raw flag count/yards. It’s about impact, and KC always seems to be on the right side of things.

No, it was after the play was over.

I took Mahomes’ quote to mean during the game. After the game they can shake hands and move on. Some guys just aren’t able to do that.

[BeastMaster]

I can't take anyone seriously that actually doesn't see that KC gets treated differently than any other team in the league. It's obvious, and it's been so for years now. 

 

That being said...Detroit was pathetic yesterday on defense, and they weren't good enough on offense either.

 

My issue will be when and if the Bills play the Chiefs in the playoffs, will we get screwed again? I would assume so, but this team has to take care of business and secure the top seed to make KC have the toughest path with no rest.

 

I also think Denver will be a problem for KC and the Chargers have already shown themselves to be a problem as well.

 

Buffalo can definitely put themselves in a much better position to face them if they get their ***** together on defense

maybe this is why Branch was pissed off?

 

 

Mahomes certainly handles losses (like the Toney "Offside" game) well and maturely.
