My big worry about the game was to get an officiating crew that would not call the holding calls.
I guess the Chiefs complaining about the calls at the end worked out and they got a referee crew suited to their style of holding our WRs.
I guess that is the concern. Still think they will call it if it is overly egregious.

Too many penalties have just become subjective.
Agreed Murdock.

And if this crew was calling the last game, they also probably would have not called the obvious hold of Boyd in the end zone and the Bengals would have turned over the ball on downs instead of running out the clock and getting the winning field goal.
I commented after the Chiefs' game that the main strategy of the Chiefs' DBs was to hold the WRs.
We might beat them even worse than this time around. Just because Vinovich's crew doesn't call Defensive holding often
doesn't mean they won't call it if it is really bad like last game. I have saw BS calls all year and especially when watching
Shawn Hochuli's crew that have given wins to teams. Don't want to see this happening.
Tyreek Hill is a big concern with that speed, cannot get holding calls going against him unless it is needed.
We did very well against him last game. The Bills didn't last night.
One thing speaking of Hill is we have to expect him returning Punts in this game now. So have to play great ST's and not
beat us for a big return to the house.
