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]
These games are fucking awful. This is coming from a guy that would watch 5 to 6 games a week including shit Chiefs teams. The results get MORE manufactured as more $$$$ gets involved. That's a fact. It's borderline WWE now. That phantom hold nobody is talking about was a COMPLETE crock of shit as was changing a penalty call AFTER the team had huddled. Someone MADE them change the call from outside the stadium. [Reply]

With Mahomes, I get to watch a guy chuck passes downfield that actually get caught and that result in well-earned yardage. He has made the game way, way, way more fun for me to watch and that seems to be a widely shared opinion among NFL fans, not just those of us who live and die with the Chiefs.
I'm not happy that the Chiefs lost yesterday, but I don't feel that we earned the victory. The game was still fun to watch. My biggest hope is for Mahomes to have a long career and my second biggest hope is that it is all with KC. As good as he is, if he can stay healthy and with the Chiefs, we are certain to get back to the Super Bowl and to win at least one.
I have to say the last two games for me have not been fun to watch. Not because the defense sux, but because of the officiating. It's a damn farce that the stripes are deciding games. That is not the way it is supposed to be. Players are supposed to decide who wins. [Reply]

Having to wait to celebrate any big play is just sooooo fucking thrilling as is scouring the field for flags, seeing yellow, and the team fucked with bogus calls over and over again...thrilling [Reply]

That's exactly where I was yesterday. I didn't enjoy the game at all after the first quarter, because I waited after every big play to see what the flag was going to be. [Reply]
Then you watch NE and they get by with MUGGING guys up and down the field with no call...propped up by pawn announcing crews selling it as discipline or some shit. It's complete unwatchable horseshit [Reply]

Kelce was getting back up when the ball came out.
According to Mahomes, Kelce was the first read on the play, and he got tackled, PMII saw the flag come out, so he chucked it toward the end zone. [Reply]
Even without any agenda it is too easy for incompetent refs to decide the outcome of a game. One well timed offensive holding or a DPI or DH, boom game over. [Reply]

If the NFL were put in charge of mammalian reproduction, we would have all died off years ago. Those bastards would make every ejaculation reviewable, with would-be mothers and fathers scouring the field for flags after each potential conception. [Reply]
