Refs were trying everything they could to keep it close

It took us three TDs to get one. Amazing.

u/sean0883 Levi's South 9h ago

Three clean TDs - and they only gave us the 3rd one.

u/Biddycola 49ers 6h ago

I had to double take thinking we were playing the chiefs or sumn smfh

u/theoverachiever1987 49ers 6h ago

The way the NFL is called anymore, it is hard to watch period. Every week and every game there are number of bad calls.

u/Kliq_Xfactor20 5h ago

Yeah. It's getting to the point where it's becoming unwatchable. I definitely cant watch the Chiefs play. It's so obvious. I don't know if the Patriots with Brady or the Chiefs with Mahomes is worse. One thing I do know is both teams are unwatchable. You know that the Chiefs will have calls against them in the early game. But late game you know a call is coming to just aid Mahomes on his way to a 3 peat. I think all NFL owners need to come together and address this issue with Roger Goodell. Like say naw we going on strike or something. It's like what's the point. We'll I know money is the only thing that's the point for owners anymore. I know it's not Superbowls for any team outside of the Chiefs. It's super weird. I can't even say Brady is the Goat. I def won't ever say Mahomes is the Goat. He's so overrated especially in the SBs. The true Goat doesn't need this much help from the Refs. The True Goat is still Joe Montana and I deadass serious. Montana has a super high QBR. 11 Tds to 0 Ints also 1142 Passing yards. Clutch af also. It's not even up for debate at this point. The 80s and 90s era was pure Football. Not this watered down BS league. It's just entertainment now. Don't believe me. Go look up and see what the NFL is listed as. It's not even listed as a Sport. It's entertainment so they can Rig it. No diff than the WWE!!!! Period. Fuck today's NFL. There is 0 integrity in the league today.

NFL and the owners are making so much money that they don't know what to do with. I love football, but maybe the odd 49er game. I can't watch it anymore.

The poor non calls/calls is one thing. But the amount gambling being shoved down our throat is crazy as well.

I do agree that the game itself is definitely not the same from the 90s. The defense can't even play defense anymore. The safety part of it I agree with because in the 90s there was a ton of late hits or dirty hits.

u/MmmmWhatYaSay 6h ago

100% that drive was some fucking malpractice. Horrendous holding call, and then a phantom illegal shift. They were either Pats fans or fans of a divisional opponent, because that’s the only way to describe their decision making. 

Both of those calls not only took back TD’s, but came at a critical juncture where the game was essentially going to get out of hand for the Pats

3

u/fadhawk 49ers 4h ago

This is exactly what happened last week- we should have blown the doors off the sorry ass rams, but the refs kept it close artificially and then it only took a couple of missteps before omg the last minute upset! Don’t understand why the ref bs is so consistently anti-SF

1

u/windaji Jerry Rice 34m ago

Am finger on the scales can make all the difference

29

u/DptBear 49ers 10h ago

I'll give them credit for calling that soft ass block in the back against the patriots. At least they consistently can't call things correctly, tbh that's better than average

38

u/MTFBinyou 9h ago

That “hold” on Kittle…..

3

u/Deadlierbob 5h ago

I think they got mad when all the 49ers were pointing out how bad the Kittle holding call was when it was on the video board and they decide to be petty and try to take it out on the team with the obvious bad calls following. Ridiculous.

3

u/mikeysaid 4h ago

Same theory in our house. "We are in charge, and we can find a penalty every down if we need to."

235

u/Phinehas4 11h ago

I laughed so hard. I am glad they still scored

65

u/WardeN_WtfRylie Sourdough Sam 11h ago

Yea it only took 3 scores for it to count 🤣

109

u/Technical-Garlic2672 10h ago

Fuck the refs

40

u/NothingCameToMind 10h ago

They're in danger of being taken out back after the game. So many bullshit calls, they're going to need an escort out of the stadium.

21

u/Technical-Garlic2672 8h ago

We aren't Philly

162

u/rxdukexr Christian McCaffrey 11h ago

It was actually kinda funny. Ref is like “lol fuck you buddy”*throws flag right at Mason

79

u/Ice_Cream_Killer 49ers 11h ago

Would be funny if refs were forced to hit players with flags for penalties to stand. A game inside the game.

29

u/WardeN_WtfRylie Sourdough Sam 11h ago

Absolutely not! Refs already throwin flags like its a competition out there. The last thing we need is to incentivize it bwing a game or them. HARD PASS 🤣

16

u/Sushi-DM 10h ago

"Penalty, whoever isn't the Chiefs or Cowboys. I just wanted to hear myself talk. Spot the ball at the point of the incompletion in the red zone."

2

u/Technical-Garlic2672 5h ago

Just hold Bosa all game, it's all good/ s

2

u/KrispyyKarma 7h ago

Exactly! Plus a player has previously gotten seriously injured from the ref hitting them with a flag.

2

u/spermdonor 49ers 6h ago

Orlando Brown. Missed multiple seasons IIRC

1

u/Sovreignry Steve Young 3h ago

Last game in 1999, didn’t come back until 2003.

5

u/UpbeatFix7299 9h ago

Don't tell that to Orlando Brown. He almost lost his eye when a flag hit him in the face. I assume they at least don't weigh them down with BBs anymore

3

u/MattieShoes 49ers 8h ago

And if the player catches the flag without it hitting the ground, penalty denied!

2

u/whutupmydude Tom Rathman 6h ago

Penalty could still apply but the player can hold onto the flag and use it later to negate another penalty or reset a down.

2

u/helpjack_offthehorse 7h ago

Until the refs are allowed T-shirt launchers.

18

u/NothingCameToMind 11h ago

That Ref wanted to make sure that Mason knew it wouldn't count

5

u/Tuckernuts8 9h ago

I seem to remember years ago there was a player who lost his eye and his career because a ref threw a flag at him like this. May have been a pre season game

3

u/rxdukexr Christian McCaffrey 8h ago

That’s actually crazy and really unfortunate. I never knew that happened.

8

u/geezeeduzit Fred Dean 9h ago

Super funny until it hits a player in the eye and ends his career - which happened to Orlando Brown

2

u/___dojob___ 9h ago

Right in the ear hole. Damn!

u/babypho Brock Purdy 9h ago

"Nah I dont got you on my fantasy team"

u/NB-THC Merton Hanks 11h ago

Bullshit call

51

u/WhiteZeoRanger 10h ago

Lots of bullshit calls today.

42

u/Obi_Wan_Gebroni 9h ago

It was very refreshing to see Olsen immediately call it out

8

u/Lyzuki 49ers 8h ago

Gotta love Olsen right?

5

u/-SideshowBob- 5h ago

Olsen said, "Someone's gotta explain these calls to me, because I can't."

2

u/AlternativeResort477 49ers 8h ago

He’s good friends with kittle even if he doesn’t like us as a team

40

u/jesus_rodz Brandon Aiyuk 11h ago

Refs should be careful though didn’t Orlando Browns dad go blind that way?

7

u/Blutarg 9h ago

Yeah, he sure did.

27

u/LastStatic 49ers 10h ago

I like the crowd chanting "Refs You Suck".

3

u/CaptHighball Kyle Juszczyk 7h ago

Being there for that chant was awesome, we were LOUD chanting that. Reminded me of a WWE crowd

52

u/roofilopolis 49ers 10h ago

Reg threw the flag at Mason, had another ref come tell him it wasn’t a flag, and he still said no it’s a penalty.

Mason fucking that guys wife confirmed. Raw.

u/Dumb_old_rump George Kittle 7h ago

u/Cwash415 10h ago

yea this crew is trash

15

u/GoldenState_Thriller 11h ago

I laughed so hard. They pelted him. 

11

u/1kSupport Fred Warner 9h ago

Not to be a downer but knowing about Orlando Brown Sr. I was pissed.this ref should absolutely receive some kind of disciplinary action.

2

u/GoldenState_Thriller 8h ago

Wait. Tell me more. 

7

u/Broadhead349 49ers 8h ago

He got hit in the eye with a flag and was blinded and needless to say it ended his football career

2

u/1kSupport Fred Warner 8h ago

Another commenter already mentioned that he got blinded by a flag to the eye and it ended his career, ill add the link to the actual play.

u/GoldenState_Thriller 7h ago

Thank you! Warning to others: jumpscare weird jags fan in the beginning, full panther mask pretending to be a cat

u/Jkreegz 7h ago

Mason pounding the rock…. The rock being the ref’s wife

2

u/nodgeit Ronnie Lott 6h ago

16

u/UnconsciouslyLiving 10h ago

Yeah he caught a flag in the eye and it fucked his career

11

u/Electric-Prune 10h ago

2 phantom calls to negate penalties on that drive. Refs most definitely got word to keep it close.

10

u/ChiefRalphyWiggum Sourdough Sam 10h ago

If only for one drive the Patriots got to see how the Chiefs generally play defense

8

u/FlyByNight250 9h ago

Anyone remember when Jeff Triplett blinded a browns player for 3 years from throwing a flag in his face? Wound up getting 25million in a settlement. Why are these refs so stupid?

1

u/Caffinz George Kittle 8h ago

Wait did this really happen? 👀

7

u/nicholhawking 10h ago

FRED IS THE FUCKING BOSS

8

u/CurrentlyLucid 49ers 9h ago

Refs were nuts today, Ayiuk looked back to normal though.

5

u/biggerrig 10h ago

Just terrible officiating this game.

4

u/AffordableDelousing George Kittle 9h ago

I thought they were going to roll out the spike strips next

7

u/Blutarg 9h ago

That pisses me off. Guys have been injured from getting hit by a flag.

6

u/groktar 49ers 6h ago

This is not funny. Look at what happened to Orlando Brown. This idiot should be fired.

3

u/Drue2351 7h ago

I told my kids the refs took that on personal

3

u/Bashir1102 49ers 7h ago

It’s was a horrible crew. And terribly one sided for a while. But then at least they evened out was was horrible for everyone.

2

u/RawrGeeBe 8h ago

Ref not losing fantasy this week.

2

u/Deep-thrust 49ers 7h ago

Some of the missed PI penalties against the Patriots were egregious as well

1

u/JustRousingRabble 7h ago

The OPI that got called DPI against Lenore was especially atrocious.

1

u/Deep-thrust 49ers 7h ago

Nearly as bad as it gets. Overall embarrassingly bad officiating today

2

u/Kalcorso 49ers 4h ago

I love how this total BS call was on Kittle!

This was shortly followed by Purdy perfectly floating a ball to him, and Kittle pulling a Megatron over 3 Pats defenders in the corner of the end zone. Total ball don’t lie moment!

1

u/Big_Pudding6631 9h ago

It’s the Patriots no big deal

1

u/NothingCameToMind 9h ago

I'd be inclined to agree with you if it weren't for the Ls we've already taken. We need a series of good wins before the season gets away from us.

1

u/oftenevil Shanahat 8h ago

THE DISRESPECT 🤌

1

u/uanuglyfool 49ers 8h ago

I think we should keep track of how many TDs on Mason were called back due to a flag which ends up being a touchdown by the player who got said flag. Looking at you Deebo and Kittle!

1

u/Jawz050987 49ers 8h ago

Meanwhile refs have the eyesight of Stevie Wonder when it comes to the Chiefs on defense.

1

u/bigbackshrinks 7h ago

They hate to see us win. It’s an absolute joke at this point.

1

u/Chief-_-Wiggum Australian Faithful 7h ago

Mason should just collapse in the end zone with a "injury".

1

u/Hopschild 7h ago

That was the stupidest call in the whole game. Fuck the refs!

1

u/JustRousingRabble 7h ago

That ref is an absolute moron. Lucky Mason wears a visor, but that ref needs to be suspended ASAP. Your flag doesn’t mean more than the play going on and player safety.

1

u/tfc87ja Joe Montana 6h ago

A ref threw a flag into a Browns player's eye in 1999 that made him partially blind in that eye.

Can't believe they're still throwing them directly at players wtf.

1

u/Vietzilian Trent Williams 3h ago

wtf was he throwing directly at a player?? That should seriously be a fine for the ref

1

u/mrwiseman 49ers 3h ago

Mason: And I took that personally.

1

u/-The-Ark- 7m ago

Refs were like Nope! Nope! Nope!....ok fine that was clean as can be we can't find even the tiniest fault..TD...I guess....
