Buffoon Andy Reid said it in his press conference. He said the refs should have given the Chiefs a warning after the play.

What’s worse is the guy who lined up that far offsides is the one who caught the lateral and scored. Reid’s a goofball


This is such a wild hill to die on.

It's not like it toe was barely on the line. His entire foot was in the NZ.

I think part of the problem is not a lot of people understand the rule itself (that only the center can be in the NZ).

Seems odd that most people wouldn't understand this. I feel like this rule has been around (and enforced, mostly on the defense) since I was a kid (30 years ago).

In any case, Mahomes and Reid became incredibly unlikeable with the way they've handled this.

Combine that with the fact that the Chiefs are already perceived to get very favorable calls/non-calls every week...their whining about this blatantly obvious correct call is rubbing everyone even further the wrong way.

Apparently, this is how it used to be handled. This year, they have actually started calling it without the warning first. Sucks that it happened on that play, but the flag went up in the air, right after the snap, so it's not like they were trying to get the play called back.
