This is going to be the first Super Bowl in my 45 years that I'm actively boycotting. I hate both the Chiefs and the Eagles with the infinite energy of a thousand suns. Fuck. This. Bullshit

BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee · 11 pts · 1y

seriously this is the worst super bowl matchup ever. no good team to root for

Naminreb2@fedia.io · 2 pts · 1y

Same. Even Kendrick Lamar…nothing there to see this year.

Awesome. And might I recommend just stop watching the NFL altogether? Most of us are enjoying football and aren't mad about stupid things. We would really enjoy it if yall you would just leave.

So refs' calls did help decide this game. :(

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 15 pts · 1y (1 reply)

It was a 1st down!! 😡

Omegamanthethird@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 1y

Fans, booth judge, and one of the line judges all agreed it was a first down. It must have been checks which call would help the Chiefs a fourth down stop.

The refs have a habit of handing games to KC.

Didn't look like anyone caught it. Ball hit the ground and moved. Ofc the Chiefs get the call

52fighters@lemmy.sdf.org · 7 pts · 1y (1 reply)

What's up with review after another play has already run? Chiefs had the penalty off the prior play, so they were good either way.

dhork@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y

McDermott threw his challenge flag before the play, the refs were supposed to stop it and they didnt

ThatGuy46475@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y

Don’t worry, tomorrow the head of officiating will explain why we are all wrong.

fahfahfahfah@lemmy.billiam.net · 3 pts · 1y

Such BS

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 8 pts · 1y (1 reply)

If Bills lose this game, it's the play calling on THIS series. All passes after the 1st run. WTF?!

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 8 pts · 1y

And all those QB sneaks after the Chiefs stuffed them like 4 times

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Christ man. There's NO FREAKIN REASON for refs to help Chiefs. They don't need help.

criss_cross@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 1y

But the Swift must flow in the NFL

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 1y

Oh come on... that's NOT FACE MASK

Omegamanthethird@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Did he not get that on his last push? It looked pretty cut and dry.

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 1y

Booth ref says he got it.

charade_you_are@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Nice to know the Bills fuck up against the Chiefs just like my team, the Ravens. I think if the Ravens would have made it, the result would have been similar. So I guess it's the Eagles I'll be rooting for with no heart, kind of bored of them but I don't hate them.

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

It's not so much that they fucked up, but the refs had a hand in this. Like the 4th down call - from TV it looks like it was good. But one ref overruled the other, the field on the call stood, and Chiefs went on to score a TD off that play - a potential 10 point swing in a close game. Fucking rigged crap.

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 1y (4 replies)

Disappointing. Chiefs vs Eagles SB it is

Nusm@yall.theatl.social · 10 pts · 1y (1 reply)

I'm rooting for the ground to open and swallow both teams whole.

dhork@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y

I can root for Saquan to go get his ring, he deserves it.

sarcasticsunrise@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y

2025 is the most doomer pilled year already and we're not even out of fucking January. Gonna rock my Baker jersey on SB Sunday, but I've already agreed with my wife that I'll eat wings and watch Twilight with her.

52fighters@lemmy.sdf.org · 3 pts · 1y

Chiefs, Bills, & Ravens are all better than every NFC team. These last two weeks have been better matchups than the Super Bowl.

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Sigh. of course Refs call it for KC on that 4th down.

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

How did one ref say it was a foot over, and then the other ref overruled him?

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 1y

Why are they going away from the run?!!!!!!! there's plenty of tme!

WaxiestSteam69@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Bills running game looking good right now. Love some ground and pound running.

dhork@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y

Yet they didn't just give it to Cook to try and get those 2 points....

Nusm@yall.theatl.social · 5 pts · 1y

If that crappy call on 4th down where the refs gave the ball back to KC is the difference in this game, it's just going to make the "rigged" cries even louder.

TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee · 5 pts · 1y

God damn it, Buffalo

Turn out the lights, the party's over...

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 1y

It's a miracle! Bills got a stop! lol

Nusm@yall.theatl.social · 4 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Alright, this one is Allen's to win. Can he lead them to a TD and not leave any time left?

This one has lived up to the hype so far!

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 1y

He could really go down a legend here. Be the one to finally bring down the Chiefs and stop the 3-peat

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 1y

It's like the play by play guy is trying to curse Bills.

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

Bills are sleepin

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

That's the best anthem I've heard in a long time

TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 1y (3 replies)

Good game so far.

If Buffalo had kicked a FG instead of trying a sneak for the umpteenth time 2 series ago they'd probably be up by three right now.

Whoever #5 is on Buffalos defense better tighten his shit up. They've burned him multiple times and he's got 3 flags so far. They will be going his way.

dhork@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y (2 replies)

He's the backup who came in for the concussed guy

TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Homey better fix his shit.

dhork@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

With any luck, the Bills use up all the time and win and he doesn't see the field again

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

What a grab by Hollins!

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

What a catch

Omegamanthethird@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y

What an effort on 4th down to get a TD!

criss_cross@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y

I'm rooting for the bills but they need to stop some drives

Nusm@yall.theatl.social · 3 pts · 1y

Another classic battle, but I'm disappointed that it's the Chiefs again.

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

That might have been the best series all season by Bills (that I've seen. didn't see all of them lol). Quick snaps so KC couldn't change personnel, McDermott actually gambling instead of playing it safe.

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

McDermott's never been creative enough to win the big games. Not on offense, nor on defense.

FallopianSphincter@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y

It's frustrating to see Buffalo routinely be a competitive team year in and year out and then watch games like this.

RandAlThor@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

There is NO FREAKIN CONTAIN!!!

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

TOUCHDOWNNNNN!!!

Nusm@yall.theatl.social · 3 pts · 1y

Man, I wish Allen would secure the ball. It was out there flailing around on that run!

MelonYellow@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y (2 replies)

Might as well let em score so there's enough time left
