You know, the one on Mahomes’ interception. The refs called pass interference, announced the call, and then huddled together and voluntarily overturned their own call after they announced it.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen that before. Someone explain how that happens without a challenge. [Reply]

Wow. You'd be right, if that had actually been what happened, TexansFan.

Yes.
Problem is, Kelce was on the ground before the ball was thrown. He was getting back up after being tackled when the ball was thrown. [Reply]

Not according to the rules. Or, I might add, based upon precedent.
Let's enter the Wayback Machine with Sherman and recall how many times the Chiefs have suffered a DPI call AWAY FROM THE PLAY. I can think of a dozen or more without even googling up stuff or conducting an internet search.

What should have happened, was after the ref said that. Anytime Watson dropped back and the ball went somewhere else the CB should have chopped Hopkins knees out.
And said hey just going on what you said the rule is...matter of fact the whole team should have done it. [Reply]
This is video of the official listening extra close to someone talking to him in his ear, and then the call being reversed to a Mahomes interception. pic.twitter.com/2lvsCQYQAX
It wasn't even holding since Kelsey fell down on his own. WTF are you guys complaining about? Nothing should have been called. Mahones throw his first INT in week 6. You guys are doing pretty fucking good. [Reply]

The defender literally takes his hand & pushes down on the back of Kelsey's helmet & pushes him down. The only legitimate questions are did the contact take place within the 5 yard zone in which db's are allowed to "chuck" the recievers, or was the ball already in the air when contact was made.

Are you completely blind, or just a stupid Bronco fan?
Even Tony Dungy says it's a penalty - watch the video here, where the defender drags Kelce to the ground BEFORE the pass is thrown :

That push down is not the reason Kelce is falling. His ass was already going down from losing his own balance. Further, the call was not defensive holding. It was PI...The ball was un-catchable for any Chiefs receiver. There is no PI. There is no holding. It's over. Move on. :-) [Reply]
I don't give a shit what Dungy says. He's not an expert in physics. Further...holding was not the call. You can't commit PI when the ball is no where near anymore that can catch it. Of course none of you seem to acknowledge the holding/tackle by the Chief left tackle. [Reply]
The whole game was fishy. We got boned. It reminded me of the Steelers game last season where they did everything they could to keep the game from being a blowout.
Whether you think we got hosed or not, the officiating in the league SUCKS so bad now. The games just aren't as enjoyable to watch. Every damn play the players look around for a flag. I can't enjoy good plays anymore because I'm looking for a flag. Nobody wants to see the Sean Hochuli Show on Sundays. Fuck that guy. [Reply]
