Re: Thank the Refs
I can see why Chiefs fans might feel they were ripped off. I don't usually see forward progress called on a QB sack.
Either way, the Chiefs had the ball in the endzone twice and neither one counted.

Re: Thank the Refs
I understand the rules about after the whistle blows but my point was whether the whistle should have blown at all. I just thought the whistle was blown too quickly IMO and were lucky it went our way.
And no, I'll never root against a Ravens victory but I'll Bitch about Cam getting his head stuck in the sand a few games a year.

Re: Thank the Refs
OK, OP:
Thank you, refs, for actually knowing the rules and calling two blatant OPI penalties.
How's that?

Re: Thank the Refs
Yep, it is the equivalent of Frank Walker getting a reputation for holding. It is going to be watched for and called.
The refs were now sensitized to a WR bumping a different DB on a cross. The refs didn't have to process the info to consider PI, they were pre-warned that the Chiefs did it and were going to throw the flag as soon as they saw it (without much thought).
Offense controls the plays, the routes WR run, and when 2 WR cross that close to the LOS, 99% of the time it isn't accidental.
Instead of thanking the refs, we probably can thank the Falcons, they probably sent film in complaining and the refs had a refresher course just before they came out on the field.
As a side note Brian Daboll their OC did get experience with the Bellicheats from 2000-2006at one point of my life I was exactly Pi years old
