It was a hold. 

 

If the refs let it go then they are affecting the game.

 

If the call it then the players decided the game. 

 

you have to call consistently.  There are holds on tons of plays.  None were called until that point.

That holding call is going to cause me to lose interest in the NFL. How do they just let them play all game and then literally end the game because of a penalty? Unbelievable call, I feel bad for Eagles fans.

There will be a 200 to take your  place

Defense wins championships?

[BADOLBILZ]

 

So much for the Eagles 70 sack pass rush.

 

Zero sacks on a high-ankle-sprained Mahomes. 😆

 

You beat the Chiefs.......or the Bengals or Eagles etc.. by outscoring them.

I thought the Eagles D was terrible in the 2nd half …

 

They threw that one away 

 

 

One of the worst defenses I’ve seen in a SB. They were awful.

Eagles are stacked.  They may only get better.  They will certainly be back.

 

Dan Marino thought that too...

 

Nobody knows what the future holds. You need to take advantage of the opportunities you get.

 

They may not get back for another decade.

We could’ve drafted Bolton. We already knew Edmunds stunk and we hadn’t paid Milano yet. We screwed up. He was all over the field.

 

2nd KC player we should have drafted.  They owe us a thank you card.  

[Donuts and Doritos]

That was a flag you pick up.

They didn't call it all night.  I've seen much worse not called.  

 

That call decided the game.

 

I get that they weren't calling it and I didn't love the call or the timing of it. 

 

But if you don't call it then you let the defense cheat basically. 

 

Tough spot. Glad it wasn't against us.

I'm already there. It's become next to impossible for me to tune into an NFL game and expect to see a fairly officiated contest. Look at the Bills/Dolphins game in Miami. Josh Allen had 63 pass attempts, and there wasn't a single pass interference or defensive holding call on Miami.

Try to be objective. It’s based on the current talent, and projected QB moves. Jets will get a veteran QB, Jax is improving, Chargers would have been much better if not for injuries. KC and Cincy will still be very good. 
 

Bills have some tough decisions to get under the cap. And based on recent roster moves I don’t have confidence that Beane will make the necessary player and coaching moves.

 

Be objective on what? Made up moves that haven't happened in your own mind? What's the point? At least 50% of what you think is going to happen will be wrong

Please inform McD.  I'm looking forward to the draft and dreading it at the same time.

If I had to grade this Superbowl, I would give it an “I” for incomplete.

 

I really wish we could’ve seen what Philly would’ve done with 1:40 & one timeout, down 3 points.

Brady went almost a decade without a SB win and that was with the evil empire.

[RyanC883]

ref crews need to be fined for calls like that.

I agree

So is it cheating the other times in the game they don't call it?  

 

If a referee is nothing else, the one thing they have to be is consistent.  If they aren't, it destroys people's belief in their impartiality.

 

If you don't call it all night, there's no way you call that one as weak as it was, on a 3rd down,which literally ended the game.

I agree you have to capitalize on your opportunities & they blew this one. But Eagles have #10 pick & #31 pick in the draft, with a good core in place, I like their chances.

Very true.
