Yup, since it's a before the pass penalty, you can never know how the route would have played out and how close they would have been. Even if you didn't throw it to him, it would still be holding, possibly preventing him from being a viable target. It's weird how commentators just don't care about the rules because of "entertainment", sad.

I get that Mahomes is supposed to be the next Brady, I just wish they would not make it it such a close game to not let them play. That was not a hold that stopped him and anyone who has played football knows that and this includes the refs. Since you can not "tell" in real-time, this is why there needs to be a ref in the booth to make the call to pick up the flag. A penalty that effectively kills the remainder of the game needs to be so egregious that no reasonable and rational fan objects. 50 years as a fan and did not care who won the game and it pissed me off.

It’s not a pass interference like the rams vs saints that wasn’t called, this isn’t a lining up wayyyy offside like in the chiefs vs pats, it’s a ticky tak play that happens almost every play and they decided to ice the game with it.

Rich acknowledges that it was a hold, but he'd rather the ref not make the right call so he can be more entertained by the ending? This seems to be a pattern with Mahommes for some reason. When the rules produces an outcome that he wins, it's something wrong with the rules (i.e. the Buffalo overtime game 2 years ago), but when the rules produces an outcome that he loses, the other quarterback/team was better (i.e. defensive neutral zone infraction in the AFC championship against the Patriots).

I think regardless if they call it or not, people would still be super critical of that play..the idea that a bad call is worse than a bad no-call is just not rational. As many bad calls and bad no calls there are over the years, I’d say this was one of the least controversial calls in previous history. It was a great game period. And like any game, there is usually a call or two that are controversial. To think that the Super Bowl would be any different is naive of us as fans. Same refs in this game as in the rest of the games. Congrats to KC and I’m sure Philly will be back with a vengeance

Wouldn't have been in this situation if the second fumble went in for a TD like it should have. AND the 3rd and long to Goedert didn't count because he never had control then re-controlled it as he stepped out. Total non catch. He juggled. If THAT was a catch than the fumble for a TD was also a catch. He secured it shifted to go forward then got nailed and it came out. He didn't make a step but he certainly had complete control over it. So all a moot point.
