Everyone who watched the game knows the bullshit that was the 1st half of that thing. There's a reason you even had the CBS panel saying it without saying it at halftime. It was the most obvious Brady ref show in his entire 20 year career, which is saying a lot.
Now you can certainly say the Chiefs might not have won anyway as badly as their line was outclassed, but the Bucs undeniably had 14 points gifted to them by the refs. Arguably more. Mahomes has overcome a lot in his short career, but there's just no coming back from that against a team as good as Tampa was. |

The Chiefs had an uphill battle in a fairly called game, the NFL decided they wanted to leave no doubt. This was about their boy being established as irreplaceable, no one else ever mentioned as GOAT.

Consistency or lack thereof. Can't let them play in the CCGs and suddenly call ticky tacky stuff in the SB. Did not see egregious fouls by the Chiefs D on the DPIs. If they hadn't been called nobody would have broken a sweat, hardly noticeable.

I suppose it’s just a coincidence that the Bucs had more beneficial PI yards than any team in 12+ years.
I suppose it’s just a coincidence that a PI call helped the Bucs seal the win against GB. |

Kelce had one that killed a drive, Tyreek should have had a Td but dropped it and the miraculous Patrick pass that hit Darrel Williams in the face at the goal line. Refs sucked but we didn’t help ourselves either |

But it’s not as simple as “they only scored 9 pts., so they would’ve lost anyways”. The officiating changed the dynamic of the game so much that it’s impossible to say what would’ve happened. |

Being down 15 at half isn't an insurmountable task, especially for this offense. But when we came out and kicked a FG to start and they scored a TD that's when it became clear we were in some deep ****ing shit. |

Tampa Bay has seen a lifetime of crappy calls and unfortunate breaks. There will be no apologizing for yellow flags, homefield advantage or substitute tackles on Kansas City’s offensive line.

They didn’t completely abandon it, but there’s no way you can tell me they wouldn’t have run the ball a lot more if they weren’t down multiple scores. This is common sense. |

You'll never convince me that Britt Reid didn't **** the Chiefs mentally last night. There was a lack of focus all over the field from players and coaches alike and their demeanor was piss poor.

And like I said, they probably still lose, but I hope the NFL takes all the shit it deserves (not that it matters in terms of future officiating bullshit). |

Game was close, Then we started calling time outs with 50 seconds to go on a short third down. Tampa scores a TD HalfTime We score a FG Tampa scores another TD This sequence of events right here put the game out of reach because Tampas defense was playing really well and any time Tampa got the ball they just somehow managed to eat up clock and before we knew it, we were half way into the 4th. |

And just like some of the fans here, most likely a finger gets pointed at Andy by the some of the players. ( at least in their head) They were mentally handicapped. A little girl is fighting for her life. You can't stop human nature. |

There is no way it didn't affect them. |
That’s funny. Y’all weren’t saying that when the refs helped you in the other super bowl
|
We did get ****ed by the refs but it was 14-6. We made it through the storm and Brady was just ready to go to the locker room.
Then Andy made a huge mistake and they got a TD. It would have been 14-9 after our first possession of the 2nd half of not for that error. |

NFL is dead to me...I'm not wasting another year following a team just so the officials can hand another trophy to Brady.
Two decades of this shit is enough...and two of the past three years in Mahomes case. I might start caring when he retires...when/if it becomes a sport again...starting to wonder if it ever really was and I was just too young to notice. It's like the NFL is just trolling it's own supporters...nobody cares about Brady anymore except NE hanger ons and the 20 or so Buc fans. The Bobble-heads try to make it seem like everyone is still enamored in watching him play... and getting gifted SB titles. He's not Micheal Jordan and never will be in the same stratosphere....people are only watching him because there is no other choice. He's not this transcendent talent...People loved Jordan because he was actually better than everyone else. I had a bad feeling at the end of the Packers game...actually when I first learned Clete was officiating that game. I'm not interested in the game drama being directly tied to if and when officials will bail him out every year. Last night was ridiculous...and insulting to anyone who has followed this game for more than 10 years. I didn't watch the Rams/Patriots SB...and tuned out of this one in the 3rd. Learning Tampa had the most PI calls in history this season.. then sets a SB record for 1st down penalties the same year is the final nail...the cancer keeps spreading... and has finally consumed the host. Tom Brady's 7 rings arent a symbol of athletic greatness...they are a symbolic of corporate greed/corruption. |

Bullshit! |
You could tell by the teams body language they didn't think they were going to be allowed to win.

Refs made the game unwatchable.
The AFC & NFC championship games were reffed better. |
The Superbowl crew was an ass crew that didn't deserve the game. But because ba woman was on it they got the game.

Chiefs won a SB in my lifetime...and after being indoctrinated into fandom 40+ years ago..it's all I wanted. I dont care about a dynasty or GOAT talk...that's for meatheads to argue over. Mahomes was the only reason I was even still paying attention...had he been average...I would have already been gone. This is entertainment/corporate marketing not sport...so there is no reason for me to continue investing any energy in following it...keeps getting dumber and dumber every year too... |

It was a game the 1st 2 series then the flags came out and let KC know they couldn't play defense the way they had all year. They kept the flags in their pockets for TB. After that it was basically over.

There's no way the NFL wanted to see a blowout like this - one of the most boring SBs ever. Unless Brady literally has compromat on Goodell, that's silly to even think. I do think they were worried about the Chiefs blowing out the Bucs like the first meeting. So the refs were directed to deliberately skew their pregame "points of emphasis" or whatever they call it - to call the game tight. The unpsoken part is that this is to level the playing field and hopefully get a great game with crazy Mahomes magic. I fully believe the NFL tries to nudge games like this to get exciting outcomes - see the Rams Monday night game. I don't think they ever say it out loud though. Unfortunately all they did here was tip the playing field completely out of reach for us. |

LMAO Tampa Bay scored 10 points in the second half. That's it. The offense failed to do anything all game and that's why we lost. Period

Cheffers officiated 2 other games for us. 9/20 against the Chargers and 11/22 against the Raiders.
9/20 - 11 penalties for 90 yds 11/22 - 10 penalties for 89 yds He also officiated the January 2017 Pitt loss with the Fisher hold on the 2 point conversion. The 2nd quarter alone last night we were flagged for 90 yards. The most ever in a single quarter of a SB game and the most in a single quarter of an NFL game since week 1 of 2018. Last night was a ****ing joke and now all I get to see, read, or hear about is how great Brady is and how no one will ever be better. |
Quote:
Just like the Bucs being the beneficiaries of the most PI yards in 12+ years. Just like the Bucs getting a beneficial PI call to help win the NFCCG game when they were letting the Bucs corners mug GB’s receivers all game. It’s all a coincidence. |

Here's some more "interesting" stats
So Tom Brady has had 10 SB games and in those 10 games his teams have been penalized 47 times for 324 yds and has been given 26 1st downs from penalty yards. His opponents have been penalized 71 times for a total of 562 yards and have 15 1st downs from penalty yards. Now let's look at games since 2001 in which Tom Brady wasn't present and see how penalties were called. 11 games 135 penalties, 1125 yards, 29 1st downs from Penalties That averages out to 6.1 penalties, 51 yards, 1.3 1st downs off penalties per team Opponents of the Tom in the SB average 7.1 penalties, 56 yards, and 1.5 1st downs from penalties Tom Bradys team averages in the SB are 4.7 penalties, 32.4 yards, 2.6 1st downs from penalties. The 1st downs from penalties is the most bullshit of all. Since 2001 there has only been 4 teams that have gotten 4 or more 1st downs from penalties. Tom Bradys teams have been the recipients of 3 of those 4. There has been 12 instances in which teams were awarded 3 or more first downs from Penalties. Tom Brady's teams got 5 out of the 12. 50% of the time Tom has been helped by more than 3 penalties for 1st downs. Only 20% of Tom's opponents have benefitted from that same stat. In 11 other SBs between 22 teams only 23% of teams benefitted from the same thing. Tom's a God damn fraud. I wish someone in the media would bring up the bias that the refs show Tom. |
Well, at least I won't be buying any SB Merchandise this year...
Can't we just blame Trump? I mean, isn't he the cause of everything bad now? |
I hate the NFL and Tom Brady. Fake legacy cheating scum.
|
There were calls that were made that I didn't agree with and calls that I did agree with. I defer to my "Remember the Titans" speech. We did not/could not do that to them.
We came in 2nd instead of 1st. It hurts but it beats the shit out of 16th every year. |
I watched every playoff game this season and last. The refs allowed both teams to play "playoff-style" defense in every game, but this one. We also watched the refs put their heads together on nearly every questionable call throughout the regular season and playoffs and mostly they got the calls right, but not in the SB.
In LV, flags were thrown, at least twice were egregiously bad calls, and there was no discussion, barely a replay, and even the commentators were curiously silent. Did they even try to get the TV ref to explain any of them? I don't recall that either, and during the regular season they were quick to have Steratore or whoever explain what we were seeing. I don't believe in conspiracy theories, especially as it concerns the NFL, but it was very curious that the refs chose those plays, in those moments to suddenly decide it was week 1, instead of the Super Bowl. |
Quote:
But one thing that's always been curious is there's seemingly never anything to fix. It's not like the NFL has to publicly fine refs or whatever.... but, like with the Rams/Saints crew that went on to officiate the SB that year, it's just a terrible look. And shit like last night should be fire-able, really. On top of that, I'd love to see leagues in general simply have a 'ref' in the booth who can quickly make things right.... I've always hated the whole "not reviewable" thing, either because it wasn't specifically a reviewable thing (example, a puck bounced off the net once and landed on the back of Jonathan Quick and went in the net, and they called it a goal because it wasn't reviewable at the time) or because it's subjective by nature. And on top of on top of that, you have refs on the field using freakin' iPads in tents and bullshit when people at home have watched 10 replays with 6 angles before they even get that shit setup. Just put someone in the ****ing booth to call down and say, hey dildos, there's obviously nothing there. Doesn't have to be every single play broken down into slow-mo with 10 different cameras... just the most obvious stuff in real time. Showing zero desire to fix that crap just gives them an even worse look in the whole thing. |
Quote:
And I just have to question why it was necessary at all. Why change the way they officiated this game? They could've just pulled that shit when we played CLE or BUF. Just doesn't make any sense. |

God damn Penbrook. Get that dumb shit out of my thread. You worthless bag of shit.

Watching the presser, it’s pretty obvious Andy blames the refs. Pat looked broken in his, hope the guy shakes it off, seems like he’s blaming himself
|
Todd Bowles said their goal was to take away PMII's first read as the pressure could get to him. In rewatching the game last night, our receivers were being held/illegal contact all night. Yes, are Oline was atrocious, but them only calling it close on one side made it damn near impossible. That's what folks are not getting...

And it's exactly the kind of stuff the Chiefs desperately needed in their game plan, and we all thought they were holding back for a game like this... shovel passes to Kelce, committing to CEH, etc; and I think Simms touched on it, too, that maybe Reid was just too afraid of the offensive line to even do those things. :shrug: As far as officiating, I think the Bills/Chiefs shenanigans would be a good excuse for the NFL to crackdown on some of that stuff, but that obviously wouldn't include completely phantom defensive holds and DPIs. |
