It’s already been three weeks into the NFL season. With the Kansas City Chiefs going (3-0) and looking to be the first team to win three straight Super Bowls, it appears luck is still on their side.
It seems the Refs have made another bad call on Sunday Night Football as the Atlanta Falcons fell short 22-17 to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Refs Make Another Bad Call
In the fourth quarter, Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts was looking to real in a catch on a third-down pass in the end zone.
But supposedly, Chiefs safety Bryan Cook made contact with Pitts before the ball dropped to the ground incomplete.
You make the call for yourself here. To me it looks like Cook is all over Pitts, holding him (literally), and picking him up.
The Refs said, “From the angle that they had at the time, they did not feel that there was a foul committed.”
I was sitting home in my living room, not even at the game live, and I could make that call…
Week #2 – Are We Seeing Double?
Just to be transparent about the Refs’ inability to call the flag from a “good angle,” the Kansas City Chiefs took on the Cincinnati Bengals in week two.
It seems like the roles were reversed. With the Chiefs down by two points and 48 seconds left in the game, Patrick Mahomes’s fourth-and-16 pass to Rashee Rice was incomplete.
But, Cincinnati was flagged for a penalty that looked very similar to Sunday night’s game.
Once again, you make the call…
Week #1 – When It All Started
In the 2024 season opener on Thursday Night Football, the Baltimore Ravens took on the Kansas City Chiefs, and the Ref’s biases began.
Right before halftime, Chiefs defensive coordinator foolishly ran down the sideline to call a timeout before the Ravens could snap the ball.
The only issue was that the head coach was the only person allowed to call timeout.
The whistle was blown, allowing the Chiefs to line up in a better formation and not be penalized for violating NFL rules.
Once again, another obvious mistake made by the Refs.
It makes you wonder if they ever get punished or have to take accountability for their bad calls.
