The streamer’s comments have sparked a debate among NFL fans, with some agreeing with his assessment of the referees’ performance and others claiming that he was simply making excuses for the Bengals’ loss. Regardless of which side of the debate you fall on, it’s clear that Timthetatman was frustrated with the officials’ decisions during the game.
Why was Timthetatman asking for the investigation?
In the fourth quarter of Kansas City’s AFC Championship Game victory over the Bengals on Sunday, it appeared as though the officials had given the Chiefs what essentially felt like a do-over on a third-and-9 attempt that they had initially failed to convert. This was one of the game’s more puzzling moments.
“On the previous play, there was an incomplete pass,” Ron Torbert said of the situation after the game, via the pool report. “We spotted the ball, but the line judge came in and re-spotted the ball because the spot was off. We reset the play clock and the game clock started running. It should not have started running because there was an incomplete pass on the previous play. The field judge noticed that the game clock was running. He was coming in to shut the play down so that we could get the clock fixed but nobody heard him, and the play was run. After the play was over, he came in and we discussed that he was trying to shut the play down before the ball had been snapped. So, we reset the game clock back to where it was before that snap and replayed third down.”
