It’s no secret the penalties against the Kansas City Chiefs hurt the team. One penalty negated an interception Brady threw while a pass interference call gave the Buccaneers another opportunity to throw a touchdown pass and score. In fact, NFL Research noted the Chiefs’ 95 penalty yards in the first half of the game were the most penalty yards against any team in the first half of a game all season.
Some viewers thought these calls didn’t align with what fans had seen earlier in the season. As former NFL referee and NBC sports analyst Terry McAulay tweeted, “Neither defensive hold called on KC comes close to the standard we saw the entire season for that call all season and certainly not what we saw in TB/GB.” Others, however, felt like the calls were fair.
“You can talk about the penalties,” Chiefs defensive end Frank Clark said, per USA Today. “I ain’t even going to play that part. It’s a fair win.”
