Huh?

Because one is self serving

self serving or not, they aren't good judges of rules or how to apply them, or even what happened on field. trying to be honest doesn't mean he knows what he's talking about, and i generally don't trust players to know.

I enjoyed the game, it was quite exciting.  I thought the iggles had put them away at halftime, but KC found a away to get back in it, and then it was anybody's game.

There were many penalties called and uncalled, and many subjective plays either reviewed or not reviewed or reviewed incorrectly by the refs, that went both ways. It's easy to focus on the one at the end without considering how the teams arrived there.

Anyway, on to next season.  Or the draft, I guess, but I've never been much for getting into the draft, any more than I focus much on college recruiting.  I'm really only interested in what the players do, once they're on the field with their teammates, and given whatever coaching is applicable.

Correct any bad calls after the coin flip count equally. many times the most egregious were buried from memory in the 1st half

This writer -as always- says it way better than we could.

Joel Klatt said it well too.  He said the officials had established the strike zone, and changed at the end when it meant the most.

Now I know this is a bad take

Not often I disagree with you.  But this time I do. Because I think Joel is correct/ and even if you don’t read that article I just posted- look at the film.  On the play in question- there were at least 2 egregious holding infractions on KC that weren’t called- just on that play. 

dont get me wrong. In the end I fall into the “officiating affects both sides“ crowd.

It’s just tough to watch the big games when the refs move the goalposts substantially late and virtually end the game- as they did in this case.

A broken clock is right 2 more times per day than Joel Klatt, without even looking into what he is talking about

Please read the article if you get 5.   It is not Klatt.
