February 13, 20232 yr It's not about the points given up. The down and distance was 3rd and 8 and would have been 4th down and a field goal attempt that would have left about 1:20 or so on the clock. It was ticky tacky call at best that directly affected the outcome of the game more so than it should. Until that call it had been well called game IMO. The receivers route wasn't impeded and the ball was no where close to catchable. Mahomes was literally throwing it away at that point.He threw it away because his receiver wasn’t on the route because he was fucking held.Maybe play some special teams. Eagles giving up a near TD on the previous punt was the back breaker. Or maybe getting a sack. Everyone thought the Eagles DL would eat the Chiefs lunch and pressure Mahomes. Not one fucking sack the whole game. Don’t fumble. I think they saw Mahomes hurt before the half and thought they had the game.Fuck those Eggles. Fuck Philly and their shitty sandwich. Shitty broken ass city. Shitty fans.

February 13, 20232 yr I mean, it effectively ended the game so to say it didn’t turn on that is a little disingenuous. Would the Eagles have gone down and scored? Who knows? But the game was over when the flag was thrown.It was a hold. It sucks to see the game end like that from an entertainment perspective and I do feel like they were letting a lot of stuff like that go over the course of the game, so to see it thrown all of a sudden is odd. But it was a hold, Philly didn’t get screwed.Pretty sure the play clock went to 0 about 2 times and not called on the Eagles. Another time, they called a TO. I thought the bobble catch wasn’t a catch. But it was close and open to interpretation. So no big deal there. Officiating was fine.
February 13, 20232 yr Popular Post To summarize Bow: 1. Yes, I know the defender held an eligible receiver running a route in the secondary 2. Yes I know it turned out to be the intended target of the pass. 3. Yes I see the still frame of the jersey sticking out proving the hold. I get that this is a way refs are trained to identify holding. 4. Yes I know the refs saw the foul and flagged it. 5. Yes I know the defender admitted unequivocally he was holding. 6. Yes I know the defender knows holding is a penalty but did it anyway to try to impede the rout, hoping to get away with it and influence the game. 7. Yes I know an improvised play when timing is off is more susceptible to error. 8. Yes I know defensive holding is holding before the pass and thus is not penalized based on its EFFECT, even when the player held is never considered for a target. 9. Yes I know it rewards and encourages rule-breaking and conspiracy theories to ignore penalties. 10. I have judged the style of this hold unworthy of a flag, based on my vast expertise of skiing technique. I also think Jimbo would never have put his team in such a vulnerable position. That’s why he’s got a natty.
February 13, 20232 yr I want refs in the NFL and honestly in all sports to be instructed to call the egregious and otherwise stay the fuck out of the game. If they only have to look for legitimate no question fouls then their performance will get a lot better. That will also greatly reduce the talk about leagues rigging games through the refs. It's a win for everybody. So we have a league that can’t simply define what a catch is. Now you want referees in a nanosecond try to remember the definition by rule of what “egregious” is. You’re just taking a pile of shit and making it an elephant pile of shit. Here’s what needs to happen to fix it, as Belichik proposes every year to the rules committee. Make every call challengeable. If Siriani didn’t like the hold then throw a red flag.
February 13, 20232 yr 1 hour ago, Uncle Nate said: I'm both. Granted, Tech legend EJ Holub started me down the road of having the Chiefs as my AFC team, and Mahomes helped reinforce it. EJ was a nice guy, I knew him when I lived in Midland a long time ago. He was huge.
February 13, 20232 yr If he’s open a little earlier maybe mahomes can throw it while he still has a comfortable pocket and the pass is completed. The tug for sure impeded momentum for the chiefs player and gave it to the eagles player to recover. Unless one believes the player tugged just hard enough to pull jersey but not slow the player wearing it. But only true idiot would argue that. This is a significant but undervalued point in reference to allowing the Eagles player to recover. Bradberry knows he’s beat and will run past JuJu without the initial grab. That same grab is not insignificant when JuJu is changing directions like it would have been had he been full speed. Then he grabbed him again. So he grabbed him twice, slowed JuJus momentum but also helped Bradberry change direction. In totality that’s significant. Juju was probably two steps away from the pass. It wasn’t PI, but he was close enough to the ball to make the hold impactful.That refs angle has clear view of the jersey pull. Then he puts his hand on the hip from the backside a second time. The ref did his job.
February 13, 20232 yr holy shit a mad cowboys fan.The call has nothing to do with being a Cowboys fan. If that call had gone against the cowboys I wouldn’t blame the refs but Jerry having stupid ass players that thought they could get by.
February 13, 20232 yr I wonder how some of you would feel if 2 had gotten his right hand on X's hip running a very similar concept

February 13, 20232 yr Best thing about the Super Bowl was that as usual, you Cowboy fans could only look on in incomprehensible futility. Maybe next year the same bad coach, bad players and bad GM will put it all together and you'll win!

February 13, 20232 yr Author The field condition should be a much bigger story than the holding call. It impacted the game on basically every play.

February 13, 20232 yr Both teams played on the same field and honestly wouldn't better footing help the fast flashy passing team not the running team? I think better footing helps the 280 lb guy get better traction when he is trying to get around the 320 lb guy to get to the flashy passer who knows where he is going to the receiver who also knows where he is going.
February 13, 20232 yr KC backup QB Chad Henne retired after the game. Yes, THAT Chad HenneYea ok. He and chase Daniel will be back ups until at least 48.

(Keep in mind, I'm glad KC won). It's inexcusable for the Super Bowl to have a shitty field. It's just beyond inexcusable. The idea that grass designed for a golf course, that is grown on a tray and wheeled in (so no real established root structure), and then painted on top of that, would be good to play football on is beyond absurd. I'm no turf expert, put I did play football and I do play golf, and I know a thing or two about grass root structures that most everyone else knows as well, except of course for the NFL grounds experts. Anyone who has had to repair their divots on a tee box or fairway, or repaired their ball marks on a green, knows that that kind of grass simply cannot hold up to a football game with the weight of the players planting their foot for a cut. The Okie Light tweets yesterday confirmed it was grass designed for golf courses. Looks great, but not real functional for a foosball game, Bobby. Edited February 13, 20232 yr by Uncle Nate

On the biggest stage, their surface was fucking terrible. I wonder if this was a reason neither DL really had a big impact to getting to the QB? I know both OLs are very good but it seemed like I saw DL getting a clear path to the QB but slipped a little.
