Chiefs should apologize to Steeler's fans

**NJChiefs** · 12-29-2013, 08:11 PM

What an embarrassment. Sitting your starters is an embarrassment. Andy Reid should apologize to the entire league. It would serve us right if we met the Bolts in the playoffs and they kicked our as*es. A game is never meaningless, and to play it that way is BS. Steelers fans should despise the Chiefs for a long time. They had an amazing turnaround this year and the Chiefs ruined it for them, and we let the hated Bolts prance right into the playoffs. I am so pis*ed off right now, and anybody that disagrees with my opinion on this can go play in their sandbox. We are 2-5 in our last seven. Limping in. Karma will finish the Chiefs off this year.

The more I think about this....If Steelers fans want to place blame, look no further than the refs.

That whole nonsense surrounding the Cyrus Gray runback sucked. That was just a blatant bad call that the officials stood beside. Can somebody please post a vid or gif of that play? Because when Gray starts running down the field, think he actually looks at the ref who is backing away, as if the play is still ongoing, so Gray keeps running and scores. That play should have been reviewed, at the very least.

Succop still should have made that FG, but that whole left side of the line caved in, so the "window" he was trying to kick in got smaller, and he just kicked it too much to the right.

Your team got beat by a bunch of backups. The Chargers put themselves in a worse position than The Steelers.

Thank God for officiating deciding the last playoff spot, because those Steelers were the only team in the hunt who played like a playoff team.

But they were good enough.

As for the complaint about paying to see the starters.... they will all be playing next week to make up for it.

Good for you! Hope you also mentioned Geno's gazillion pics and fumbles.

Thanks for the image, Seek. That tells everybody all they need to know. That's clearly a strip and recovery and a Chiefs TD.

Is this the sort of nonsense ( the refs not making the right calls ) that's going to happen in the post-season?

**ctchiefsfan** · 12-30-2013, 02:53 PM

Let's hope not. It does seem to me that the zebras have been exceptionally bad this year. The NFL admitting that the no call on the FG attempt at the end of regulation has to be the 4th or 5th time this year the NFL has admitted a call got blown. I don't see a deliberate pattern to the screw-ups but there have certainly been a lot of them.

Actually it should have never gone to overtime, on the missed field goal the way the Chargers lined up was wrong and should have been a penalty, they had 7 players on one side of the line which is a 5 yard penalty and there are two ref standing there watching, I can tell something is not right by looking at the left side. The NFL has admitted it was a missed call that should have been flagged moved us 5 yards closer and give Succop another chance.
