i would just like to keep a list of excuses eagles fans, players, and coaches have made over the past few hours. feel free to add to it as you hear new ones.

"the refs were bias because they actually called smith's drop an incomplete this game"

"suh's hands to the face penalty was bs because he was grabbing his jersey and his face mask"

"we would of won if the field was better"

"the chiefs cheated because mahomes was in pain and still played"

"it shouldnt of been holding even tho bradberry admitted it was holding"

MUH SACKS
MUH DEFENSE
MUH RECORD
MUH RUNNING GAME
MUH FANS BUYING ALL THE TICKETS

Only one muh mattered.

MUH HOMES

This is a reach.

Most Eagles fans are pretty accepting. I mean NFL fans in general are upset with the late holding call because it ruined an otherwise great game. Nobody wants to see a game decided like that when they had let that go up until that point. Chiefs adjusted well in the second half and Eagles defense didn't and that killed them. Great job by Reid.

cant say the game was decided by that when the eagles would of been losing without the call. then you take into account the 10 pt swing the refs gave the eagles by overturning the clear catch fumble and td return, and it really isnt worth complaining about the refs as an eagles fan.

even your "moment of sincerity" is laced with excuses and gaslighting.

Clear catch and fumble and TD return? You're joking...right?

90 year old grandma who doesn't know shit about football could look at that play and know as soon as it happened it wasn't a catch lmao. Like, as soon as it happened I knew for a fact it wasn't going to stand. He didn't make a "football move" and it was clear, hell he didn't even turn up field completely before he was hit....

All of these casuals think two feet is a catch, which really only applies to going to the ground / out of bounds. A play like this is 2 feet and a football move which this wasn't obviously, so it's considered a pass breakup. Pretty standard stuff.

But hey, we wanna talk about plays that were reversed...

How about the no PI called on this play? Defender didn't even attempt to play the ball, just climbed all over DeVonta before the ball even got there lol.

So the rules should change depending on how much time is left in the game? By definition, it was a hold and he impeded juju's route which made Mahomes throw the ball away. It didn't ruin the game at all.

But he had two feet down after the catch and turned upfield? Personally, that call doesn't matter in my mind but you contradicted yourself there.

Alright, then let's talk about the pass play in the first or second quarter where once again, juju was blatantly held and hooked but the refs didn't call it and it resulted in the chiefs punting.

You don't seem as bad as others about all of this but it's mind-blowing to me how delusional people are. There have been way worse no calls/calls and I have never seen so much complaining and blaming the refs over the outcome of a game before.

No they shouldn't change, which is why it probably shouldn't have been called. The refs let them play for all of the game. Yes it was technically a penalty, but if the officials Called the game they way they called it all game, a flag should not have been thrown.

He does clearly grab the jersey though. They usually always call that

Two feet down, he didn't make what the NFL defines as a "football move" though. He barely turned up field before being hit. Never even had a chance to make a move....that's not a catch, it's a pass breakup.

I think it's a major reach for anyone to argue that one lol.


Also there was an uncalled helmet to helmet on DeVonta on the first drive. See, we can do this all day, in every game. There are always calls and no calls that everyone can argue. People just have an issue with that last holding call because it broke the consistency they had all game letting them play. It's a shame to disrupt a great game with a call like that.
