As someone who rarely watches football, I confess that I don't know what is going on all the time, but this game set a new standard. I was rooting for the Bengals, but only because they are a local team. No fervent fan here.
That said, can someone explain what the heck was going on with the officiating? I know calls don't always go your way, sometimes things are missed, The Bengals missed opportunities, etc.
However, it seemed that an improbable amount of calls went the Chief's way. There was a iffy pass interference call, and whatever weirdness was going on when a ref run out on the field, there was clock resetting, which somehow gave the Chiefs a critical do-over. It seemed like whenever the ref came out and made a pronouncement it was bad news for Cinci.
What do you all think? Was the officiating odd or was this typical?

The chiefs are a bigger market team than the Bengals. As a long time Bengals fan, I'm used to things not going their way with officiating.

No clue. I did hear, but no way for me to confirm, that the NFL made a change to officials and now the biggest majority are inexperienced like a large proportion have been in the league for less than 3 years.
Could explain some bad calls.
I have heard folks speculate there is a fix on some games. I don't buy it but I suppose anything is possible. Too many people involved to keep it quiet.
Sucks to be the fans of the team that got the lopsided calls. Too many times the refs impact the game. I watch college basketball more than other sports and there have been some blown calls that changed the outcome of the game.

I don't think it's rigged, but I'm certain the refs sucked last night.

The play before that I believe was an incomplete pass but the clock kept running which prompted the back judge to kill the next play (the do-over). They are saying no one could hear due to crowd noise??? I would think one of the officials would have noticed the clock running but.......can't afford to give Mahomes extra chances. The unsportsmanlike penalty (late hit) was a killer. I agree the PI/holding seemed ticky tack. And yeh, the Bengals were on the wrong end of those late game calls.

Bengals had a good season. Just couldn't out play the ref's.

Bengals had a good season. Just couldn't out play the ref's. I’d agree they made some bad calls not the first time it happens in a lot of games. But the Bengals brought some of them on late hit was stupid probably the killer KC put the Q back on the ground 5 times can’t win a game like that either way both teams put a good fight up not the outcome I’d hope for but you can’t say KC doesn’t deserve to be in it look at what they have done the last few years |

Mahomes was just a beast to come out there with a sprained ankle and compete.
Bengals OLine is just breath takingly horrible. Never could get it together. 5 sacks and lots of penalties equals a loss.
Talking so much smack to them didn’t do us any favors either. They were pee od before game started.

KC and Mahomes are starting to smell like smell like the Pats & Brady of a few years ago.
Getting tired of them always on top. Hope the Eagles put a whoopin on them.

He is a very good coach. No doubt about that. Numbers speaks volumes. But he will never win more Super Bowls than Bill. And probably not even come close to him in regular season wins. |
