Chiefs Peyton sour grapes - Page 7

**DaFace** · 10-07-2013, 11:34 AM

I don't think the refs intentionally are biased toward one QB or another, but I do think that the elite QBs are able to get in the refs' heads a bit more when it comes to non-calls on roughing the passer plays. I can think of one time in particular when Tom Brady straight-up convinced the ref to throw the flag.

Aside from that though...it all evens out. Every team thinks that holding is always called against their OL and is never called against the other team.

I agree with this.

Fans are particularly unqualified to determine when there is a bias against their team. For example, there were several people griping in the game thread that the announcers were biased against the Chiefs. The play-by-play guy was Kevin Harlan, who was the voice of the Chiefs from 1985-1993.

Yeah and most of the time he and Wilcots sounded like the Titans radio call. Mainly Wilcots.

Brad, you do have a point but I might that Tenn. does have a better defense than what Denver has faced this year.

If we are going by net total yards, Baltimore would be the top defense Denver has faced this year thus far. Coming in at #16 in the NFL.

So far Baltimore has not played up to that team of last year and will not!

Maybe Baltimore's defense isn't as good as it was last year but it is still ranked #16 in total yards allowed.

Not in week one they weren't. Ravens had unproven rookies in the backfield that hadn't played an NFL game together yet. Advantage?
