WHY HATE KC

[Parfigliano]

They beat the Vikings in Super Bowl IV.

Discuss.

I didn't care about that at all. I would be on with them, if they didn't complain after not getting even more calls they didn't deserve to get. I hate cheating, whining, and flopping.

As a neutral fan, I never despised the Patriots during their dynasty as much as I despise the Chiefs today. It has everything to do with the refs bailing them out time and time again. Mahomes getting calls that no other QBs get. Their OL getting away with false starts nearly every play. Travis Kelce sandbagging the entire regular season so he can be the playoff hero.

Mostly this. I hate those plays where Mahomes fakes a slide and the defender lets up or when he slows at the sideline, wanting a hit and a flag. Even if it's legal, it rubs me the wrong way.

I think the NFL needs to reconsider both the QB out of the pocket rules and the fumble rules. The Stafford pass got enough people upset that I think this is somewhat likely to actually happen. Not sure about letting QBs get hit.

The Stafford play went against the Vikings and a split-the-baby decision of intentional grounding probably was warranted. It looked to me like he intentionally let the ball go forward. I don't know if he knew where Puka was, but he didn't fumble that ball.

Grounding. 100 percent. Safety.

It wouldn’t have been a safety IIRC.

Penalty in the end zone is a safety

Stafford was on about the 20 yard line. No safety if ruled grounding.

Sorry, I was thinking of a different play. Carry on.
