Possibly so.  It was a bad call, but I really don't think they saw the play clearly.  Unfortunately those calls are not challengeable.

But again, why do those calls almost always go their way?

In hindsight?

 

Possibly.

 

But you can't live in hindsight. And only Texas Tech superfans and jeffismagic would have predicted the season he had. But, in the end, he came up short.

 

Ask Dan Marino how a career can go when you get close but no cigar.

 

Andy Reid wasn't using hindsight because he had the foresight to trade for him. Jeffismagic and I were both advocating for him prior to the draft. Only I wasn't so unrelenting that I got thrown off the board for unceasing and exhausting  zealotry.

Every major call went the Pats way. Surprise Surprise.

 

The muffed punt clearly hit his thumb and should've been recovered for a touchdown.

 

Also, the roughing the passer play allowed the Pats drive to stay alive and it eventually turned the game around for them. KC was about to put them away before that. 

It didn't touch him at all. They showed it from all angles. It never touched him. Even if it had it wouldn't have mattered b/c the next play was an INT, but it didn't.

If you don’t see it, you don’t call it. Period. That should be Ref 101.

It is not just about covering Edelman..It is the quickness with which Brady throws...Give credit to Brady for the clutch plays made today.

Both Brady and Edelman are superb at what they do, dbags yes but superb. But the Chiefs Pass D looked like a college unit out there. They got fooled on every juke, fake and cut. One of the worst performances I have ever seen.

Do you ever wonder why it never, ever seems to even out, however?  As in they seem to win many games through garbage calls, but never seem to lose by them?

 

i can recall a total of one game they got jobbed—against the Panthers on Monday night 5 or 6 years ago—but can easily think of more than 10 they won that way....

They've gotten a couple on the Bills that way over the years too. I just don't think that was the difference tonight.

It did not touch him, watch the replay again with your eyes and not emotions.  Unless I misunderstand football entirely the penalty for roughing the passer is not 6 points awarded to the opposition, correct?  They could have stopped them again.  Really on any of the rest of their scoring drives.  Both teams got crappy penalties that extended drives.  I get it that your team didn't win, but damn you gotta be more logical than this.

The Chiefs had the game clinching INT in their hands. Dee Ford lined up Offside. Now we're forced to watch another Pats SB.

You don’t think if Mahomes had the ball last the Chiefs win?

 

 

He had the ball for the whole first half, I think

It's dead silent in my living room and the wife is nervously sweeping the floor, folding blankets, and avoiding talking to me while some Alaska show is on TV sine the moment NE scored

 

 

Even the cats seem depressed

 

But yeah... Total NE homer here

It's not supposed to even out. Is the NFL supposed to keep track and try to even calls out?

Clearly the refs in the early game were taking the blindfold challenge on the Saints last drive in regulation.  Woof.

That's exactly what the referee analyst for this game said. 

 

You or someone else made the point that the player who glaringly lined up off sides was beyond comprehension.

Did they pass the torch to Mahomes at midfield postgame?

 

You have to rip the torch from Brady's cold dead hands.  The guy is a friggin vampire.  Doesn't age, won't die.
