Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce did not hide his disgust with Cheffers after that game, saying he “shouldn’t be able to wear a zebra jersey ever again. He shouldn’t even be able to work at [expletive] Foot Locker.”
and that quote by Kelce was from 4 years ago!
In fact, according to Elias Sports Bureau, the six first downs via penalty by the Bucs is a Super Bowl record. And we still have a half to play. The previous record was four by eight teams.
“I feel like the referees are way too involved here,” Boomer Esiason said during CBS’s halftime telecast. “They’re throwing too many flags that are leading to points for Tampa Bay.”
The Chiefs were called for DPI and defensive holding five times in the first half The most DPI + defensive holding calls they had in a full game at any other point in 2020 was three #SuperBowl
Ok fair enough, so why weren’t they called 2 weeks ago when Tampa committed the same penalties routinely against the GB receivers? Well? Ohhhhhhhhhh
Former NFL ref Terry McAulay wrote on Twitter that two of the defensive holding calls on Kansas City probably shouldn't have been called because they didn't come "close to the standard" that officials had been using for defensive holding all season.
A former NFL official disagrees with you. I think I will defer to the expert. But thanks for your opinion, Dave.
Point out to me the holding or PI call on the Bucs..All the throws that Maholmes made was shown on replay afterwards....Maholmes was very inaccurate on the short passes...all the long passes was scrambling in throwing it up for grabs......Point out to me which play?
The big PI to end the 2nd quarter that set up a touchdown was a CLEAR tackle by the DB...The PI on Mattheau was a CLEAR PI in the endzone....The holding on Evans on the Brady INT was a mugging by the DB..as he instantly put his 2 hands up like he didn't do nothing
Chiefs scored Zero TD's and was shiit on offense..Oh that was the refs fault as well...Maholmes bailing from the pocket running around like a chicken with his head cut off was the refs as well...Never seen a quarterback run so much backwards when he didn't need to...
I don't think you understand. Is it a reading comprehension thing? Read the quote again.

..Didn't come close..You are reaching here......
Everybody's entitled to their own opinions...but not to the facts. If you could watch the calls in isolation, or close up in real time, you'll see the Chiefs are cry-babies...and sore fukkin losers. last year they were the NEXT DYNASTY...and "KILLATRAV" was gonna be HUGE!!!
Well, KillaTrav is a box...and you can say I'm a box because I'm typing at my computer LMAO...like everybody else.
He needs to STFU and get ready for next season. Gronk may like to have too much fun, too...but Gronk ate KillaTrav's breakfast, lunch and dinner yesterday...so Trav...STFU. All of a sudden you're up against some stud LBs who can move and don't fall for your OLD MAN cuts and fakes...you're so fukkin pathetic.
Love,

Chiefs were lucky Brady and company didn't run it up on Fat Andy and Pat Turf toe Mahomes.....It could have very well been 45-9

Tom Terrific has Class
I am not disagreeing that Tampa may have been the better team. But we will never know because the league, through the officials, tilted the balance of the playing field. To them, it was clearly more important that KC not win, and for the league to not have to face the embarrassment of rewarding a team that allowed one its coaches to get drunk at a team facility and then proceed to smash his car into a vehicle with young children in it, than to have a competitive SB game. They probably did a cost analysis before the game, just like any smart business would, to determine the hit their brand would take publically, and financially, with a KC win versus a crappy SB game. And we were treated to their answer last night.
110% correct. The dogs were called off in the second half when the game was over.
