The Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles almost played an all-time great Super Bowl yesterday – at least until the final minutes when the officiating crew decided to get themselves some TV time. While Philadelphia cornerback James Bradberry admitted that he held Kansas City wide receiver Juju-Smith Schuster on the critical play, it doesn’t change the fact that it was a ticky tack call that doesn’t need to be made in Week 1, let alone during the most impactful play of the biggest game of the year.
Here’s how past and present Seahawks players reacted on Twitter to the controversial call.
