God, I hate Tony Romo.

That FG doesn’t make it from another 15 yards. Ossai singlehandedly lost the game.

I watched on Paramount + so couldn't rewind, but on that last drive on second down how was that not grounding? No receiver in sight and ball didn't get back to the line of scrimmage.

Because “they” wanted Mahomes in the Super Bowl

Because that was Patrick Mahomes. NFL wants KC in the SB, so when he does the same exact thing as Burrow on the prior drive it's not a penalty for him.

I totally get that, but none of the announcers mentioned it, and the Cincinnati bench didn't seem too upset about it (or if they were CBS didn't show it.). That's why I asked, was Mahomes out of the pocket?

Eagles Vs. Chiefs...

Can't they both lose???

 

[Robert Crawford]

Who reported that?

Report: 49ers believe Brock Purdy injured his ulnar collateral ligament

49ers quarterback Brock Purdy injured his elbow in Sunday's NFC Championship Game loss to the Eagles and head coach Kyle Shanahan said after the game that the team needs an MRI to determine the severity of the injury.

So I just pulled up the game on the NFL+ app and rewatched 2nd and 4. Mahomes dropped straight back, stayed right between the hashmarks and threw the ball to no one. It hit in the middle of the KC logo and there was no one, not even an ineligible receiver, within five yards of the ball. So I ask again, what am I missing here?

It looked really obvious in real time, and even worse upon replay.

 

[JohnRice]

It’s sort of like how for years if anyone even gave Tom Brady a harsh look, they got a personal foul.

I didn't notice it, either. Not sure what play is even being discussed here.

Tom Brady just may have found his home for 2023.

It was the play right before the late hit call, 2nd and 4 on KCs last possession.

I cannot find that play on YouTube. Don't have NFL+, so I'm not sure how to see it again.

I really hope you’re wrong about games are influenced by which teams the league and networks want to see on the field. Seems to me intentional grounding just isn’t called any longer, no matter how blatant. All part of the rules bailing out and helping offense in the game.

I’m bummed that the Chiefs are in- now I have zero interest in watching.

 

[Jeffrey D]

God, I hate Tony Romo.

Was the Motor Mouth openly rooting for Mahomes?

I don’t know how they make that work salary cap-wise without hurting the rest of the team because they have to let other really good players go that are looking to get paid too. That stout defense would lose some key players.

 

[Jeffrey D]

Another quick word on the late hit last night- Bengals fans are only too familiar with a player who does something dumb at a key moment in a playoff game. Nothing was done about that a few years ago. Accountability is needed.

 

[sleroi]

Seems to me intentional grounding just isn’t called any longer, no matter how blatant.

But it was called on Burrows just a few minutes earlier and at least he had a running back close to where the ball landed. Jim Nance even asked Steritore for clarification about if the RB was close enough.

Garappolo is a UFA and would not be resigned. I would expect Brady to sign a one year, team-friendly deal if this happens. He doesn't need the money, has a history of signing for less than market value, and would be going to the best situation to win one more Super Bowl, which is what he cares about.
