Hate that call. Still a great game but hate to see that.

I didn’t really get the sky sports co-commentator’s gripe (not sure what ex player it was).. his main argument seemed to be that it was late in the game and close and he didn’t want a penalty sealing their fate. Mike Pereira seemed pretty sure it was the right call, and he’s never wrong 😁

It’s a bit like the old ‘it’s early in the game’ or ‘you don’t want to see someone get a second yellow for that’ arguments in football. Rules are rules and should apply the same throughout for me.

That 2nd half was crazy. Considering how good the Eagles D line has been they were completely ineffective against Mahomes. Never got close to him. A lot to be said about that questionable holding call.

It was outrageous. So so marginal and at THAT moment to throw a flag on Bradberry there was terrible, ended the game. I think the Chiefs deserved the win for that second half performance but without the flag the eagles get a chance to drive back down the field with 1.49 left, plenty of time for the Eagles to win it.

Almost all the comment ive heard or read post game is that it was a bad call. The problem is the whole defensive PI rules have become so stacked against the defence that its impossible to cover a receiver without some contact. You are allowed some contact, but youre not allowed a grab. That wasnt a grab and it doesnt change the momentum of the receiver anyway. Those kinds of things happen on most routes and are never called. I would love it if they went back to the 'you're allowed two jams on the guy and then leave him alone' rule for pass coverage.

I think Bradberry has now said it was the right call. It was marginal from my point of view but I'm no expert.

Still I think that was probably my favourite ever Superbowl last night - whoever had won would have deserved it.

Well i disagree with him, maybe hes trying to be classy I agree the game was absolutely spectacular, it had everything. Mahomes and Hurts were both as good as each other, some of the passes were miraculous. Hurts had 15 runs for 70 yards, TEN of those runs were for first downs. That's incredible, you never hear of QBs doing that.

Some big trades…Jalen Ramsey to the Dolphins Patrick Peterson to the Steelers, and two of the QB scenarios get resolved, Garrapolo goes to the Raiders to fill Derek Carrs spot, who cost the Saints a surprisingly high amount of cap.

The Bears have the biggest cap space, now have a few proven veterans and some extra picks thanks to trading away the #1 pick, and will be going shopping.

Happy with the Ramsey trade as it means we can release Byron Jones and replace him with better for relatively little cap hit.

Albeit with Hunter Long going the other way and Mike Gesicki both not fitting the current system and set to hit free agency we are a bit short at TE with not a lot to work with to rectify that.

some decent signings so far from the Bears, need to do some work on the D-line and maybe another 1-2 for the O-line. Orlando Brown still not signed with anyone I don’t think, would be a great addition

The Bears are basically playing franchise mode and buying a new team. Must be fun for the GM.

Jalen Ramsey has apparently regressed last season but at his best he’s a genuine shutdown corner, he was a big problem for Seattle in division games and a big reason we had such a terrible record against the Rams.

they are, he tore it down over the last year or so, cleared the decks with heavy contracts and looked to start a reset from now
