The refs usually back off their nonsense in the second half. They just want to make sure it's not a blowout and get Mahomes coming from behind if possible. Night game in LA baby!

Oh no we'll be in a situation where Mahomes wins 60% of the time

Yeah they’ll call that more often than not when it’s a star QB going out of bounds in front of his own bench. It was a stupid move by Bolton. Don’t give them a reason to even think about throwing that flag.

It is when the refs are biased. And we knew that well before this play.

Two non-penalty calls against the Chiefs on plays where they gained significant yardage.

Meanwhile:
PI on Kelce, not called.
PI on MVS, not called.
Full weight of body on Manomes, not called.
Holding on Chargers OL, not called.
Two running into the punter, not called.

Refs can get calls wrong, but they can't all break one way without it being biased. If you know that, you know they are going to ticky tack you.

This game was always going to be decided by the defense and our running game. I didn't expect much from the passing game.

Yep.....and a couple were ****ing complete bullshit

If the Chargers somehow manage to lose this game with the referee support, our WR injuries, and our own massive special teams **** ups, it will be quite something.

Put a eye patch on Herbert and he'd look like Snake Plissken

Well there are 3 injured receivers. MVS ain’t exactly 100% either and missed practice this week. Andy needs to put more focus on running the ball. Chargers are built to defend the pass game and rush the passer. They struggle more against the run game.

100%

Did Herbert flop? Yes.

Did Bolton need to lay a finger on him? No.

What is CP's collective BAC right now?

Can anyone explain to me why Mahomes, who has one of the biggest arms in the league, NEVER throws a hail mary at the end of half?
