The Super Bowl that wasn’t, The Saints and Chiefs still have valid reasons to be pissed at the official

Two plays on the same drive give Patriots life:

The Chiefs were up 21-17 and on 2nd and 7 Chris Jones was called for a bogus roughing the passer penalty that gave the Patriots a few 15 yards and then later on in the drive on 3rd and 8 Tom Brady found Chris Hogan for an 11 yard completion that clearly hit the ground, but was called a completion even after review. So, the Patriots get the first down and eventually get a score to take 24-21 lead.

The Chiefs scored again to take the lead, but shot themselves in the foot with a huge off sides penalty by Dee Ford when Brady was intercepted by Charvarius Ward and then Brady led them to six.

Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs to a game tying field goal and forced overtime, but the game was lost in regulation. Those big missed calls kept the Patriots in the game when the Chiefs had a change to take control. Playing the Patriots and the referees is tough and not switching bunch formation crossing routes didn’t help either.
