4th & 16… Was there ever any doubt?

lawl,  what a great picture.  

[DapperCam]

It isn’t some black and white call like an obvious face mask or something. If a DB jumps up and intercepts a ball and the WR runs into them that isn’t DPI. If the DB runs through the back of the WR and prevents them from attempting a catch, that is DPI.

 

So in this case it’s a ref judgement call on whether the DB has position and the WR is running back into him, or if the DB is running through the back of the WR. In my head it’s too close to call and no penalty, especially considering the game context. KC always just seems to get the benefit of the doubt.

Would it have been better if they didn’t call the ticky tack one before that play? Either way KC was going to win. 

It was fourth and 16. Game was on the line.

 

The officials handed them the W.

50/50 for Bass.

 

To hit the net?

We've gotten our fair share of no calls PIs to win games at the end the past few years (Cardinals game, Bucs game last year, Giants game last year).....

 

Its still funny.  People take stuff too seriously sometimes.

They didn't miss any holding penalties, fans just don't know what holding looks like. The one egregious WTF penalty was the illegal contact called on Mahomes' 2nd INT, but that ultimately didn't affect the game. The Bengals lost it fair and square. Burrow and his stupid hair style should look in the mirror before he looks anywhere else. Followed closely by the idiot DB that jumped on the WR's head when the ball was still in the air.

 

Ok lol. The refs missed zero holding calls. Sure.

Yeah, but you can't go "through" a receiver to get to it.

 

Yeah, that’s true. 

[Freddie's Dead]

Gotta give it up to the Rat.  That lucky horseshoe shoved up his ass must be painful.  Way to take one for the team...

[MikePJ76]

Jamar Chase inability to handle his emotions cost his team today.  They had to kick a fg when they were driving and if they score a TD there they probably win the game.

 

If I was in that locker room I would be looking sideways at the guy who has spent the summer pouting about money and not practicing and then gets a ridiculous penalty that killed a drive and cost them a huge early game.

How was it a ticky tack call? He completely prevented Rice from having any chance on the ball

Rice didn’t have a chance to catch the ball it was over his head anyway 

[Guns N' Rosen]

NFL teams must know, when playing KC the refs are going to give them the benefit of the doubt, on EVERY call where "gray area" comes into play 

 

Buffalo knows this 

 

Any other team will find out, if they don't know, already

The amount of times they call DPI on a prayer heave on 4th and a mile is approximately zero. The amount of times the defense makes some contact is most of the time because the ball hangs up in the air forever. KC plays by different rules.

Omg...take the tin foil hat off

 

That wasn't a hail Mary

 

That was obvious DPI

It isn't holding if the pass rusher uses a rip move unless certain conditions are met.

The penalty called before that play wiped a big gain that got them in fg range. They can’t called one and not called the other. That would LITERALLY be handing Cincy the W.

Cincy had any kind of a running game and they could have put that game away. 

 

I like the success they had running the ball and hitting their TEs. Two things Brady has been leaning into.

 

Our OL is so much better in pass pro and run blocking... bodes well for our Bills.

 

We do need to clean up how Torrence and McGovern communicate and hand off stunts.

 

I trust Kromer will get that straightened out.

I don't see it that way at all. He didn't really have a chance to fully extend his arms to the ball before the defender ran through him early

[bobobonators]

Objectively for Bills it’s prob best that the Ravens and Bengals are both 0-2. Chiefs are winning that division by 4 games at least.

Unless Rice turned into Taco Fall he had no chance of coming down with that ball.Calls like that just always seem to go the Chiefs way.
