Packers fans loved Carrington Valentine’s defiant response to the blown DPI no-call against the Chiefs

The final drive of Sunday night’s game between the Chiefs and Packers was far from the best officiating we’ve seen this season. And while missed calls went against both teams in that drive, no decision was more consequential than the no-call for defensive pass interference that should have been on Carrington Valentine.

You just won’t hear Valentine admit that he got away with one.

The no-call in question came with Patrick Mahomes airing out a pass on first down to Marquez Valdes-Scantling. The Chiefs receiver made an attempt at the ball but was unable to haul it in with Valentine already draped over his back near the 5-yard line.

It was an obvious penalty and should have been called. But when Valentine was asked about the no-call after the game, he refused to admit that the refs got it wrong. He didn’t see any flag!

I mean, he’s not wrong. Chiefs fans may not enjoy that answer, but Packers fans definitely did. It’s not like he was ever going to take away from his own play after a huge win.

This was how Twitter reacted
