It’s crazy.



This on the completely opposite side of the field extended the drive instead of being fourth down.

There ought to be some way for the officiating to make a judgement as to whether an infraction actually influenced the play. How many times have we seen a blocking in the back on a punt return 10+ yards behind/away from the returner on a player who was literally never going to be in position to make a play? Or a WR called for holding when the play is to the complete other side of the field. Sort of like the 'uncatchable' call (which never is called anymore). If the ball is heaved 15 yards out of bounds, how can a defender be called for interference - no one had any chance of making that catch?

Yes. The buccaneers now, and before the patriots (translation - any time on which Brady is the QB)

It's the Rams now

Got a free pass (interference) in to the Super Bowl a few years ago

Given another free pass (interference) to win it last year

This.

And the chiefs are up there. The refs weren't gonna stop calling penalties on the titans until they converted that 2 point conversion a couple weeks back. If not for thar BS the Titans would be 8 and 2 and the 1 seed at present.

Titans aren't that good and will choke at home to whatever team they play but my point remains.

When you got the guy, ...face of the league, ....they'll do whatever they got to do to make sure you're a winner. Patrick Mahomes is the guy that the NFL has tied their self to. Brady and Rogers are on their way out and well they got to have somebody.

It could have been any of the 32 NFL teams but Kansas City is the lucky one that got him. It sucks because nobody gives a damn about Kansas City or Missouri or Kansas or wherever the hell the team is at. But I'm glad he didn't end up with the Dallas cowboys because that would be the worst ******* thing in the world I would stop watching the NFL if I had to put up with that

Absolutely not. They get screwed on the “dez no catch” that handed the game to the Packers. Any other “favorite” would get that call which is why Aaron Rodgers got it. He was the leagues face w Brady then.

Dez caught it on the 8 made stumbling steps forward and landed on the 1 and they called it incomplete.
