Actually played the chiefs pretty well. You can't expect any calls to go your way against the chiefs. I didn't mind them not calling the pass interference but not after they gave the chiefs a huge one the drive earlier. It's ok for Mahomes to throw the ball 10 yards away from the receiver and it's still PI but no one else.
Yeah the bias is really obvious. The no call on the removal of the helmet was massive for me. TJ Watt got called for it straight away. 15 yard penalty no messing around not what they did.
They threw DPI and then picked up the flag and changed their mind. There were some filthy calls. The sideline catch? He didn't have possession in bounds at all. So much holding that wasn't called. It was poorly reffed. But as my old coach used to say to me, you play better than the ref refs and it won't matter, ultimately we didn't do that.

Chiefs hold as a strategy. They know they aren't gonna get called for even 1/10 of their holds so it is worth it to hold on pretty much every play.

I'd never watched them so closely until that game. Now I have no idea how qualified and paid refs "miss" these calls.
