Chiefs got screwed by the refs today. On the play Brady got injured they didn't call two penalties. Pollard was being held (the guy even had his hand on the face mask, laying on top of him) and Moss clearly pushed off. No big deal, Moss fumbled the ball. Then, later a player ran into the punter and wasn't called (they did call that against the Chiefs earlier in the game though). Then they didn't call a safety when they were backed up at the one (I'm talking about the first down try, the second one I'll grant the guy did get past with his second effort). And lastly the clear pass interference at the end.

Its a bit of both. Our line is ok but our linebackers are just horrid. We need a linebacker that can get some pressure on the QB because we need our safeties to help the CBs.

Dwayne bowe had an amazing look to tie it up in the forth quarter. I still can't believe he dropped that pass. It did hit him right in the hands... I think he dropped 4 passes today, not including the poorly thrown ball at the end of the game.

exactly. I could pick out a half dozen non calls that went against the pats. It's ridiculous every week when losers whine about the refs handing the other team the game. It all balances out. Bowe dropped as many passes as he caught today. Their offense was anemic other than that one play to get inside the 5 at the very end of the game. Pats were the better team, and they won. End of story.

I'll admit I was wrong about Moss' push off in front of the ref. The non-call against Bowe was crap though. The ball was completely catchable had the defensive back not been holding Bowe's arm and jersey.

I'm not going to defend their play, but you can't defend complete bullshit calls. I've always been adamant that refs can't cost you a game, and I'm not claiming otherwise here, but that does not change the fact that the refs completely screwed them. Like in every game there's some that could go both ways (you better believe there were more that I could've complained about, but these were completely obvious).

The refs were just plain terrible. Like the free play the Chiefs got on that final drive because Belichick waited until the last second to call a timeout.

that's the fake one...

Baseball has to tout its status of being "America's pastime" because even they know America's sport is Football through and through, no question, not even close.

Looking forward to the Bears game in about an hour. I kinda want Peyton to throw 9 td's for one of my fantasy teams.
