Absolutely we lost a couple that way and also some via terrible terrible offensive coaching/play calls when inside the opponents 35-40 yard line in getting either way too conservative or continually throwing those all or nothing deep fades on 3rd/4th and 1. I believe it's true that teams are never as bad as they seem or as good as it looks.
KC game was wrapped up and, naturally, they get a call on the last play of the game. Lose a fumble against NE on the goal line and then another terrible officiating call on a TD catch that was admitted to be wrong. Add in the BS officiating at the end of the Ravens game OTR and we're talking 3-4 more wins, a playoff berth and probably a home game. Sure, every team has their SOB stories but these were just so so bad going against Cinci. Take KC and all their breaks. Again, a team is never as good or bad as it seems.
