Shorted on Spots?
I know it didn't end up mattering, but it appears we were shorted a few times (for first downs) and I thought Andrew might want to challenge the spot. Anyone else notice that?!?

Yeah I think our replay guy might have a bladder problem

If it was so scripted, why would they short us on spots all game long?
|
We paid the refs to make it harder on us because we're Built Different
|
But the refs won it for us. Didn't you know?
I'll take the refs sucking in this manner rather than a bunch of dogshit flags (like the defensive holding after they forgot that CMC is good) |
I notice this happens a lot, also the last one with I think Kelce or Pacheco? We were marked short when it was clear he had it by a half yard.
|
Happened at least 5 times in the game, yeah.

It'd be cool to see pics of the various instances. In one, we actually were short, IIRC. In the others, we clearly made the line.
|
at least twice it really did seem like they shorted us, looked like first downs but they said it was a yard short
|
The worst one was the one in OT that we couldn't have challenged if we wanted to.
But whatever. Doesn't matter, win Super Bowl. |

there is no question the calls and non calls were NOT in our favor today! |
That one on Kelce in our own end line judge was four yards behind the play. He needs some help there.
|
Of course, McDuffie got called for something (AFTER 3rd and long) the Niners were doing ALL NIGHT to Trav.
Doesn't matter, we won, but that certainly prolonged the outcome. |
The one Pacheco made but was shorted a yard on, which we didn't challenge and then burned a time out anyway, that one drove me bonkers. But who cares. Super bowl
|
I thought they were gonna mark Kelce short at the end of OT. I was trying to process that and think about what the next play would be when they snapped the ball and showed it was first down and Mecole caught the winner. It all happened so fast I was just stunned.

But if you don't get the initial call, they can be hard to win on a challenge. Although I was also a little puzzled there wasn't a booth challenge on the under two minute or OT spot. |
a bad spot or two here and there, understandable. Consistent against one team by the line judge at the top of the screen all night. I said it during the game, i want to know that guy's name. Keep an eye on that one.

Vinovich is a real good ref. I think it’s less that they were favoring the niners, but the spots made me feel like they were trying way too hard not to give the chiefs a single inch so the gripers have something to complain about. Yeah, thought the spots were real bad all game

To not call anything all night then that.....kind of reflects the 23' ending. |
Yea this is a SB win nobody can cry the refs were for KC. We got hosed on a ton of spots and a few missed calls that should have went our way.

You can say this about the entire run. There are still people complaining, and it's delicious. |
Yes, Chiefs were screwed on a few of those spots.
Ah well, such is the game of pro football. |
The holding on McDuffie is probably the right call, he clearly impeded the receiver and had his arm around his waist. Is it the worst hold you'll ever see? No, but I still think that gets called most of the time because of the arm.

I was pissed, and nervous given our short yardage issues. So relieved it worked out. The 4th and inches play was genius.

Another call nobody has mentioned was the horse collar tackle that was pure bullshit. He had his jersey, not his shoulder pads. :mad: |
Quote:
I still think it was a bad call because I don’t think it really buckled him, and he let go quickly. |
There were a few times I thought we were like 2nd and medium and the graphics said it was 1st and ten. It happened once for us and once for the niners. Did anyone else catch that?

Would also like to see that throwback play again. At first blush, it appeared that San Fran had a lineman 8-10 yards down the field.
|
Happened during Ravens game too.

Isn’t it time to have a computerised field and ball that spots the ball electronically based on rfid, and a computerized whistle that geo spots the ball the instant the whistle blows or when it breaks the sideline plane/ endzone.
|
no, the NFL is rigged (every dumbass 8th grade boy today)
|
There was quite a bit of bullshit in the officiating that is washed away because we won. Bullshit intentional grounding, ticky-tacky defensive hold in OT to keep 49er drive alive. Many terrible spots in favor of the 49ers. But hey, we won.
