Several missed holds where the Steelers player clearly broke through and was dragged down from behind. They got one of the illegal blocks on that return there were at least three. When the guy fell on Ben there is absolutely no way that it isn't a personal foul. And I cannot find a GIF or even a replay of the Wheaton 2 point convert and I think there isn't one because there were 12 Chiefs on the field. I counted real quick, but I'm almost positive. If you can't get too many men on the field correct. sorry that is a pretty low grade for the crew.
 
far as I can tell there were only 11 on the field for the 2-pt conversion...can't screen shot it...but I count 11
 
Couldn't find it when I looked, but if you looked and counted. I counted 7 in the box and man on man against 5 receivers. must have been mistaken.
 
James Harrison gets held on damn near every rush play. I saw a ton of other plays of blatant holding that got no call. Wtf? Just call the **** . If the whole world can see it then so can you.
 
Over in Jungle noise there is a thread saying how bad the refs and Chiefs were last night and how they gave us the game. to their Credit some Bungles fans called the whiners out on it but the butt hurt is still great over there. We are so in their heads even when we are not playing.

I mean that's Goodell. He ruined Harrison's career. He could've been a hall of famer until Goodell informed the refs to let players mug him and hold him.
 
There is no foul for holding Silverback, been that way ever since he called Goodell out.

On Ben, they had him and the whistle was blown. They proceed to throw him down and the defender flops his fat *** on top of him taboot. That should be a penalty on a couple of counts. That type of **** happens to a golden boy like Brady/Manning you know flags fly...hell they may eject someone. Very weak officials but that is the current standard.
 
Why is it they never see holding against us????

It's not something exclusive to the Steelers. The ratio of offensive holding penalties per pass play has been steadily declining around the league over the past decade. The league wants it that way, as it's part of their overall objective of increasing offense and protecting QBs

Seriously, if they forced linemen to legally block JJ Watt every play last season, that dude may have had 35 sacks.
 
Dude, compared to them basically giving the Dallas Cowboys the game once they were down 14-0 any missed call last night was nothing in comparison.

That call changed the whole game
 
One of the worst missed calls? Mitchell blitzes, is being blocked by an offensive lineman who is still in contact with him when the running back goes after his knees.

And incredibly egregious example of an illegal chop block and no penalty was called.
 
I fullyexpect us to start getting some of those missed calls in the next two weeks, the NFL is creaming their pants for a 5-1 steelers and 5-1 patriots in week seven

I was hoping I wasn't the only one who saw that. Mitchell was calling for the flag as his body was in mid-air. That was horrible and it was right in front of the damn ref.

Harrison has been held for several seasons. Nothing will change. The guy is in a chokehold damn near every other play yet no flag

That was a bull **** call, I don't know how that gets called and the play vs Ben doesnt

Unbelievable that the refs missed this one.

Apparently your views on football are like the views you have on politics - incredibly distorted.

Even Count Dracula found that one easy
