There's nothing at this point that will result in the Bengals being swapped in for the Super Bowl.
Win by enough that 1-2 plays like this don't matter.
Also, be happy the Bengals are getting as far as they are and are true contenders now.
This is something that the Bengals haven't done in 30+ years.
I get what you are saying but at the same time the Chiefs didnt win by enough that 1 or 2 plays didnt matter. That is exactly why they won. What happens all the way up to that point doesnt matter. Its a tie game with seconds left. So every call matters to both teams. That last drive was bullshit and the Chiefs did nothing to win but block in the back on a kickoff and hold to get Patrick Mahomes outside in the first place.

The push was a foul period... But it took an insane amount of no calls, weird calls, and penalties to bring the Chiefs that field goal. Absolutely horrendous.
But, the Bengals lost. That is what it is!

Yep.
And the Steelers beat the Bengals back in the 2015 playoffs by basically the same thing - end-of-game questionable/boneheaded penalties.
It happens.
Emotions get high and players can get a little reckless because they're trying to make a play.
If the game is close like that, every call (or miss) will likely be criticized by the team the call is going against.
Things like this happen in every game, it's not just targeting Bengals.
