I see Chris Wesseling from Around The NFL podcast & NFL.com has died from cancer aged 46. He always seemed like a good spud and was well worth a listen to

Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski too hot to handle thus far.

Big test for Mahomes!

TB's defence are playing very well and KC's is woeful. They'll need to sort that and the penalty count if they want to give Mahomes a chance.

And the officials ffs, terrible holding call on the INT

Officials appear to be riding KC.

Based on what? Tyrann Mathieu had lost all self control by the end of the half. He's lucky it's half time and the coaching staff can maybe get his head back in the game.

Clear hold for the interception and a blatant trip for the last penalty for pass interference. Even the former official on commentary called it as a penalty

On that last call he was holding his position not the player. Very harsh. #StopTheSteal

Hard

KC are riding themselves mostly and then refs are compounding it. The two big calls (hold on the INT) and PI on Honey Badger in the end zone were bullshit.

The Breeland one on Evans was definitely PI, the office on the field goal (by an absolute mile) was preposterous and the hold on the punt all self inflicted.

I think he means the one on Evans.

Mahomes a bottle job so far, Brady showing him how it's done.

Yes, it's Mahomes killing the Chiefs here, with all the turnovers he's giving up, sacks he's giving up, passes he's dropping...

I thought he was doing ok - the lads couldn't catch the ball.

It's really the defences that are deciding the game. KC's is terrible and Buccs are excellent!!!

The Buccs offense are playing well too but they shouldn't be dominating like this in a Superbowl.
