It just doesn't make any sense
Chiefs four drives in first half 84 yds 75 yds 72 yds 80 yds Chiefs next 5 drives 16 yds 17 yds 7 yds (-2) yds (-4) yds Just insane.

They realized the refs weren’t going to call it and they started mugging the receivers and it worked. Other thing here, they dropped 8 into coverage and were doubling Hill and Kelce on some big downs forcing Mahomes to hold the ball. They couldn’t do that int he 1st half because they had too many 3rd and shorts but second half the longer 3rd downs made a huge difference. Funny enough, people laughed at me before the first game when I literally said “cheat, hold as much as you can get away with”.

The chiefs definitely knew, they held Chase all game. Bengals are good, and when they learn those intricacies... That ref crew was famous for the lowest holds called all year and I think the head dude had zero roughing the passer penalties all year. Refs want to be a part of the game, use them to your advantage.

I just wasn't sure the Bengals, the least penalized team in the league, who had only four defensive holdings calls all season, could change their stripes. But at some point it was as if they realized: the refs are just not going to call defensive holding. So, they adjusted and started holding as well. it was really quite an adjustment to the game (ref) conditions.

Congrats to the defense. Watching ESPN after both games and the question was "All due respect to the Bengals defense, but how did Mahomes play so bad at the end of the half and the second half?" Keep disrespecting our defense so we win Superbowl 56!!!

Referees tend to let DBs be extra physical in January.

Keith Vance has actually been on a hammer in 2nd halves only given up 19 total points in the 3 playoff games I believe only 9 points in the 4th quarter that is definitely winning football
