The Chiefs’ defense is hit with two questionable penalties
The Bengals were able to keep an eventual scoring drive alive after benefitting from two critical penalties on the Chiefs’ defense. A pass interference call on rookie Trent McDuffie waved off a Juan Thornhill interception and a roughing the passer on Taylor Stallworth extended the drive. Fans and critics were outraged by the referees’ calls and didn’t hold back on their frustrations via Twitter.
I don't have a dog in the fight, but if I'm a @Chiefs fan, I'm not happy with this roughing the passer call… pic.twitter.com/HYxPX8QiKW

Taylor Stallworth driving Joe Burrow to the ground and that’s a flag every time sadly.
Still don’t understand how defense I supposed to tackle the quarterback. #Chiefs
