As an objective viewer, it was 100% a penalty. It was a stupid play. It happens. Mahomes was clearly out of bounds before the push, both feet already out. Ossai either wasn’t aware of where they were or just wasn’t thinking at all.

That play gets a flag every single time when it’s a QB running the ball. Every time. That single call was a good call and was the correct call that should be called.

That said, I think Philly is going to absolutely cruise. While the 49ers made some dumb plays/non challenges, the Eagles still looked great against a much better D than the Chiefs/Bengals.

The Eagles are finally going to face a real QB.  We shall see how that goes.

I don't think I've ever seen the refs call a play dead when they didn't blow the whistle. Seriously, I still don't understand why the chiefs got to redo that 3rd and 9 play where the refs then call a penalty on the Bengals.

The refs missed a clear block in the back on the punt return and I don't think called 1 single hold on the chiefs Oline the entire game.

And again, when every single "questionable" call goes in favor of 1 team, are they really questionable or just helping the other team win?

You are talking to a guy who thinks that Duke and UNC get all the calls.  

But in the end ref's are human.  They make mistakes, and I do think on occasion that they get influenced by the crowd, or other factors.  And in the case you are referring to, they screwed up.  They admitted they screwed up.  They are probably going to get ripped by the NFL for it.  But to suspect that there is some ulterior or on the take over that call or the others is baseless.

trips his foot and Mahomes sells it, barely touches his shoulder

You guys are amusing with this tinfoil hat crap.  I look over it when we are playing, figure its just fans taking things hard.  But when its two random teams?   Wow.  NFL doesn't give a crap who wins.  They make a boat load of money off of either team.  

The ref's didn't cheat the Bengals.  They didn't score when they had the chance.  Most of the penalty calls were legit, but there were a few that were questionable.  Always are.     

It's only fixed when your team loses.

They did a sh-t job. It happens.

    • Fees nowadays are ridiculous. After purchasing concert tickets for my son’s 18th birthday and paying the rest of our HHI trip with 3 other families, I’m shocked at how much they are. Honestly, it’s grand theft. Some is taxes but in a world where everything is electronic, fees should be cheaper. Electrons don’t cost 10-30% of the event.
    • Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.
