Another Kansas City Chiefs playoff win. Another game where officiating steals some of the spotlight.
Patrick Mahomes rallied Kansas City to a 32-29 victory over Josh Allen and the Bills in the AFC championship game Sunday, sending the Chiefs back to the Super Bowl for the fifth time in six years with a chance to become the first team to threepeat.
But much of the talk centered on two more calls that went Kansas City’s way.
In the first half, Xavier Worthy was credited with a catch when he wrestled the ball away from Bills safety Cole Bishop for a 26-yard gain to Buffalo’s 3. The ball appeared to hit the ground and the CBS broadcast crew expressed confusion about the ruling.
“I can see it cause you can’t completely say no, but that ball hits (the ground),” analyst Tony Romo said.
