Well obviously, this game didn’t end the way Philadelphia Eagles fans wanted however,  a lot of people are pointing fingers at the referees for a call made at the end of the game.

The ball is snapped with 1:54 left on the clock in the 4th quarter, the game is tied 35-35. It’s 3rd and 8. The Kansas City Chiefs’ Juju Smith-Schuster goes to run a route with Eagles’ James Bradberry defending him.

He was called for holding giving the Chiefs an automatic first down, they take the clock down to ten seconds, kick a field goal, go up 38-35 to leave the Eagles with less than 8 seconds to run one last play.

They Chiefs ultimately beat the Eagles 38-35.

Here Are Some Internet Reactions To The Call

• People Aren't Happy!

  Such a great game ruined at the end by the refs/NFL at the very end to gift the #Chiefs the win.
  
  Jalen Hurts was going to be the MVP, clearly outplayed any player in this game including Mahomes but the refs had to ruin it.

• Hurts Was Amazing

  Jalen Hurts in the Super Bowl:
  
  27/38
  374 total yards
  4 TDs
  103.4 passer rating
  
  He was incredible. The refs and defense let him down.

• Some People Saying "Don't Blow The Lead"

  All I know is Eagles blew a 10 point lead..Don’t blame the refs on the call at the end…Eagles fans told us 49ers fans to “shut up and take the L”…Now it’s your turn

• This Photo Is Floating Around A Bit

  @Eagles were clearly the better team. And yes, made some mistakes, but that doesn't give the refs an excuse to hand the game to the @Chiefs! Yes, that's exactly what happened with 2 mins to play. Is the @NFL #rigged pic.twitter.com/80B8bxuIkU
