It was a goddamned miracle the Chiefs were even in the game. If the Steelers removed their heads from their asses in the Red Zone, this game is never in doubt. The Steelers won the turnover battle, gained 60% more yardage, had essentially the same amount of penalty yardage.
The Steelers punted one time this entire game and the Chiefs had 230 yards of offense, had no D or ST TDs, and yet still needed a two-pointer to tie. But instead of looking at the dozen times the Chiefs threaded the needle to avoid complete disaster, you complain about the result of a clear hold, even though the drive itself is in doubt of ever scoring if Conley doesn't lower his head into the range of a killshot on a pass he was going to drop anyway.
The Chiefs were an average team that got incredibly lucky with D and ST TDs this year, got a miracle banked FG, and had flukish RZ defense. Stop complaining about the refs and start looking at how the team can get better players.
