Just wanted to log on and say I’m sick and tired of watching officiating become the story across basically all major sports. Inexcusable to make that call in that moment. Weak contact. Swallow the whistle. Just an embarrassing product by the NFL this year with their officials.

This is from the eagles cornerback: "It was a holding. I tugged his jersey," Bradberry said. "I was hoping they would let it slide."

It was definitely holding. But I think that's one of those calls you normally wouldn't see whistled. But I also believe there were some bad calls that went the Eagles' way.
 
Wow...good for Trey...I went to bed a little after halftime because I had to get up at 3 this morning and just found out. KCs defense must have decided to quit doing their UT defensive backfield impersonation in the second half.

So proud for Trey....he deserves it, and he sure as heck deserves more recognition than he was getting in the game.
 
I thought the Chiefs had two big calls go against them in the third quarter. Those were just as bad as the holding call IMO.

The sideline catch was confirmed, not just allowed to stand. And the catch/fumble was overturned because he didn't make a move upfield. Those were both the correct calls. You may not like the rules, but the respective rules were upheld on both of those plays. And those were plays where an immediate judgement was REQUIRED by the official. The beef a lot of people have with the defensive holding call is that it was borderline and was not REQUIRED by the official to be called. Nobody would have blamed the ref if he decided not to make that call. Borderline calls are judgement calls, and many people believe that judgement calls ought not decide the outcome of a game.
