Funny. I thought it happened on 3rd down too.

I agree with you on it being worse for the reasons you state.


What made that call nauseating

Was that Brady got that call

The didn’t see it, he inferred it and that’s what tears me up


Missed D holding and DPI on the same play downfield.

The Chiefs DBs were getting away with murder on the Pats receivers, including on the play with the roughing the passer. At a minimum, it should have been 5 yards and an automatic 1st down (I’ve seen some whiners claiming the pass was uncatchable so PI would have been off the table, but it was still clearly defensive holding before Brady even released the ball).

The Patriots were 1 dumb play by Brady from wrapping the game up in the 1st half. The Chiefs made a valiant comeback, but if Brady hadn’t thrown that stupid pick in the end zone, they would have been up 3 scores at halftime instead of only 14-0. Belichick went on the road in a hostile environment and had his team much more ready to play than the favored team. Betting against Belichick this time of year is usually not a good idea.
