There was an early penalty flag in the Super Bowl Lix, which went Chiefs’ Way, and social media right at the queue, caught fire.
On the 4th and-2, Eagles chose to keep the offense in the field, and Jalen hurt AJ Brown deeply for a first down.
However, the judges were quick to throw a flag on Brown for offensive passport interference.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receives AJ Brown catches a catch against Kansas City Chiefs Cornerback Trent McDuffie during the first half of the Super Bowl Lix at Caesar’s Superdome.
The flag bumped the birds back 10 meters instead of putting them in the red zone, and they had to punt instead.
Nick Sirianni was red-hot about what even Fox TV company Kevin Burkhardt said was “controversial,” and even rules analyst Mike Pereira said he wasn’t seeing enough.
It looks like they were talking for most of social media.
The Eagles were able to force a point, but it certainly changed the dynamics at the start of ball games, although it may have been the right call.

There has been plenty of talk about the judges who favored Chiefs throughout the season, and after a beneficial call late in the AFC title game against the bills, the cries were even higher.
However, in a sense of potential makeup calls, Kansas City was taking up being called on a personal error for unnecessary roughness on the third down on Philly’s next drive. It continued the drives of the birds, and they took advantage of it with their patented TUSH-shubs several pieces later to go up 7-0 in the first.
