Chiefs Clinch Super Bowl Win With Just 8 Seconds Left On The Clock

The Kansas City Chiefs You managed to get a 38-35 Victory Super Bowl LVII is on Sunday. There are only eight seconds left in the fourth quarter.

Penalty for late payment Philadelphia Eagles The Chiefs attempted to reduce the time before trying to break the 35-35 tie. James Bradberry, cornerback, was the background. The gamble paid off, and as quarterback Patrick Mahomes took a knee, place kicker Harrison Butker delivered a field goal with eight seconds to spare.

But even as the Chiefs celebrated their victory, Eagles fans took to Twitter to complain about the holding call against Bradberry — that put them in position to take the lead.

“One of the best super bowls I’ve watched ruined by the refs,” @timthetatman tweeted.

“We had 58 amazing minutes of the game, then the refs decided to pick the winner. #Chiefs win the Super Bowl 38-35,” Doc Kleiman added. 

“The fact that the two best teams in the league were throwing haymakers at each other for 58 minutes only for the refs to basically decide the game is really a tragedy. No professional sports season should end like this,” Brett Kollman complained.

Brenden Deeg added, “Letting the refs dictate one of the best Super Bowls of all time is a sick joke.”

“Can’t believe this epic game ends like that. What garbage. And I didn’t even care who won. I just didn’t want the refs deciding it with ticky tack garbage,” Jon Ledyard tweeted.

Benjamin Allbright pointed out the fact that while he felt the holding call had been excessive, the end result may have been the same regardless. “It’s not the Chiefs’ fault that the refs made that laughable call, and they may have won anyway. Congrats to them. But what a poor way for an otherwise great game to end,” he said.

And Allbright may have been correct — the Chiefs outscored the Eagles by a wide margin in the second half of the game.
