That was the most insane thing i have ever witnessed

Im not even gonna sleep tonight, or tomorrow

Chiefs overcame some serious ref ball today.

That was much more insane

[TwistedChief]

Chiefs overcame some serious ref ball today.

I know why you say that, but the most egregious call in the game was probably the non-call on Hill when he took his helmet off.

[carcosa]

That 4th and 1 punt in OT was very funny

[Pointer19]

I know why you say that, but the most egregious call in the game was probably the non-call on Hill when he took his helmet off.

How long after the play is a player allowed to remove his helmet? Dumb rule in my opinion.

And themselves. Scary win man.

What about the no call on the obvious targeting play that knocks Watkins out of the game?

3 58 yard field goals and a 53 yard field goal. All money.

What do you mean by egregious?

The helmet to helmet on Watkins comes to mind for me

[chiefzilla1501]

We had our worst stuff against a pretty good team and still came out on top. I don't know why the chargers D gives us fits. But we look to have figured something out towards the end.

[TLO]

I know why you say that, but the most egregious call in the game was probably the non-call on Hill when he took his helmet off.

I assumed his helmet had come loose and that's why he removed it? I was about 3/4 working and 1/4 watching the game at that point though so IDK

[JohnnyHammersticks]

I've watched football for a few decades now, and that was the single most freaking nails thing I've ever seen a placekicker do in my freaking life. He just kicked 3 game winning FGs in OT from 50+, 2 from 58, plus a game-tying FG as the clock ran out in regulation time, plus hitting another 58-yarder earlier!!

Un be lievable

[Simply Red]

I know why you say that, but the most egregious call in the game was probably the non-call on Hill when he took his helmet off.

so it's the equalizer.

[Mecca]

The Chiefs got hit with multiple ticky tack penalties on the last drive while they let a dude launch himself at Watkins head, and let false starts go, there was no agenda, mmhmm.

[Hammock Parties]

Ravens game was better

[Misplaced_Chiefs_Fan]

I survived the Cardiac Cardinals back in the 1970s. . . but I'm fifty-years older now. Not sure my heart is up for the Cardiac Chiefs.

Imo it was the non call on the helmet to helmet that knocked Sammy out

With Hill it was more of a “it’s in the rules” penalty, just a dumb mistake on Hills part. Refs just let that dude headhunt Sammy and get away with it tho.

[lcarus]

The Chiefs got hit with multiple ticky tack penalties on the last drive while they let a dude launch himself at Watkins head, and let false starts go, there was no agenda, mmhmm.

Watkins gets speared in the brain with the crown of a helmet and no call. The Chargers false start like a full second early on a 4th and 1 run play. But Allegretti sneaks a fart before a field goal and here come the flags.

Real-time, I thought his helmet popped off when he rolled on the ground. It's not until the replay that I saw he did it himself. I'm guessing the refs thought the same

It's baffling they got the Chiefs on flinch false starts but let the Chargers OL move and hold everywhere.

Anyone who watched this game and didn’t see that the refs were obviously trying to hand LA the win is simply a very naive person. I’ve seen it too many times against the Bolts and Raiders and it’s very easy to tell when it’s occurring.

They wanted the Chargers to celebrate a win in their opening game in the new stadium, plain and simple. You could almost see it on the faces of the Chiefs’ players. Something was off and they knew it, it happened to them 2 years ago against the Rams too.

Unfortunately for the league office, we’re just too fucking good.

[bdj23]

Ravens game was better

I was at that game too

[IowaHawkeyeChief]

I know why you say that, but the most egregious call in the game was probably the non-call on Hill when he took his helmet off.

Not even close... That would have been a 1 point change. The obvious false start on the Chargers on 4th and 1 that wasn't called from the 50 lead to 7 points.

[JohnnyHammersticks]

And yes, I've seen this post before. About Butker. And Santos. And Succop. Hell, back in the days of Stenerud, Chief fan was probably writing this post by inscribing hieroglyphics into stone!

[Randallflagg]

What do you mean by egregious?

The helmet to helmet on Watkins comes to mind for me


I have to admit that today's game left me scratching my head (refs). However, I was curious - why they didn't call Hill for removing his helmet after his TD? That one puzzled the hell out of me..

Glad the idiots DIDN'T call it, though. Suck it Bolts.

Yeah I watched him do that and went "Oh shit, no you didn't." They got lucky there.

I don't think they thought he did it on purpose, it happened so fast.

On replay he clearly did.

Why? Because his GM got buttkicker?

[RINGLEADER]

That 4th and 1 punt in OT was very funny

Someone at the Chargers forum posted some analytics that showed it was a push whether to go for it or not but the problem with the analytics is they don't take Mahomes and Butker into account.

I was stunned they didn't go for it. Did they really think Mahomes wouldn't be exactly at the same point as if they missed within 4-5 plays? Evidently...

[Hammock Parties]

I gotta tell you guys I was absolutely terrified when we had to go for it on 4th down in overtime.

And then we ran the most basic bitch play ever, the power O from a tight formation.

But Andy's guys just win. They've been doing it forever.

I think the only reason it wasn't called was because it happened so quickly and the refs must've thought it just bounced off his head due to contact. Only explanation. Hill is cheetah-like in every way.

God damn this is fun.

Mahomes is solidifying his legend before our very eyes.

You know that defense was like COME ON, WE GOT TA GIT DIS BOY'S BACK NOW.

[Spott]

It’s truly amazing that we won this game. San Diego really outplayed us most of the game and was getting a ton of extra help from the refs. It felt like this game was their Super Bowl and I would imagine the Chargers are gonna be flat next week.

You are 100% correct

[Chiefshrink]

4th down play against the Ravens has been the best so far with the Wasp play a close 2nd.

[BlackOp]

Refs took off 4 points...two FS penalties on KC kicks. They also ignored a FS when LA converted a 4th and 1...which would have ended an eventual TD drive.

That's 11 points just from calling and "non-calling" three false starts at timely moments. This is how the NFL "massages" games...luckily Buttkicker defied them...

They had two "ticky-tack" holding calls when the Chiefs looked to be ending the game....again at crucial moments.

It was pretty obvious the NFL wanted the Chargers to win in their first game a SO-FI....

Raiders are opening their stadium tomorrow...something to keep an eye on.

[chiefforlife]

My take on the Tyreek play where he removed his helmet.

I believe he was out of bounds when he removed it, I watched it a couple times.
While true in real time it kind of seemed like it popped off but he did remove it himself but he was out of bounds at that time. Which means he was not on the field at the time so technically it was NOT a penalty. Correct?

[BlackOp]

ok

You just dont want to trust your eyes...everyone in this thread noticed it.

If Buttkicker didn't hit 3 consecutive 50+ FGs in OT, ..this game could have easily gone LA's way. They definitely made it as difficult as possible...

Refs can "nudge" games by calling and ignoring...but players still have to make plays...unless you are the Tom Brady Pats...then they just hand you games.

He was out of bounds and had already scored, so the play had been over for a few seconds before he took it off.

You should definitely go, although it’s a completely different scene there from what it used to be in the old days. Just don’t get married there.

[St. Patty's Fire]

Seeing people willfully believe these ridiculous conspiracies is so tiring

[Megatron96]

At least one of those holding calls was ridiculous. I watched both of those replays multiple times and really couldn't see holding in either of them.

[Eleazar]

This doesn’t even rate in the top ten wildest games of the Reid era

[Rasputin]

After watching what we did in the playoffs and Super Bowl I was about as even keel as I've ever been watching Chiefs. I had no worries only cussed a couple times from missed calls but I never panicked. I enjoyed the game prep collectively. Nothing really surprising of that we won in nail biter fashion. I guess I was biting my fingernails lol.


Good game.

[Hammock Parties]

It's sooooo much fun to have a literal god playing QB. :LOL:

[eDave]

ok

I'm leaning in his direction this one time.

[cooper barrett]

yes he did not have to work to get it off, it was most the way there. It came off easily with one hand.(it would have gone back off as easily.



I assumed his helmet had come loose and that's why he removed it? I was about 3/4 working and 1/4 watching the game at that point though so IDK

Exactly.

After years and years.... and years.... and years.... of this mentality where every game really matters, because they just have to get in the playoffs and then anything can happen!!

.....they're a playoff team. They're a SB contender, as long as Mahomes is healthy. Period. Every. Single. Season.

Bad regular season game?

Who gives a fuck. They might still win anyway.

They're a playoff team and a SB contender.

Maybe get concerned if they've fucked around to the point of being like 8-6.... but the difference between being 2-0 or oh fuck, we partied too hard in LA and now we're 1-1..... pfft.


And I get it... people have to vent. And winning the Super Bowl started the apocalypse, so February feels like soooo long ago.... but, FFS.

It's September.

It's fine.

Good game.

I don't know what else to compare it to as a sports fan. The only thing I can think of is when Wade Davis was closing for the Royals. Mahomes is obviously on his own level of greatness, but it feels like when Davis was coming in and you knew the game was over. There wasn't a doubt.

[petegz28]

What about the no call on the obvious targeting play that knocks Watkins out of the game?

Or..

The PI against Reek in the 1st Q?
The false start on the Chargers on a 4th down conversion?
Or a couple late hits?
Or a missed face mask or two?

[petegz28]

At least one of those holding calls was ridiculous. I watched both of those replays multiple times and really couldn't see holding in either of them.

In the game chat at the start of the drive in the 4th I said "as soon as we get into the red zone the Refs will call us for some kind of holding..."

I'll be damned if it didn't happen.

[jerryaldini]

Still don't know what CP was looking at on those holds. Looked obvious to me. The first one sprang Mahomes for a first down so you have to call it. Second just unnecessary Wylie pulling defender down. Stupid play on his part.

Go to any message board and it's the same crap about refs having some nefarious agenda. Two years ago the refs were gonna get both LA teams to the SB. Now it's the new stadium. What's next?

[ThyKingdomCome15]

Ravens game was better

I agree with that.

[2bikemike]

Who gives a flying fuck if he took his helmet off. Dumbest rule ever. It's not like he was going all Myles Garret on somebody. That rule can eat my ass.
