What BBN said about it

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorHere's Mahomes, Yahoo Sports has it: he said he hadn't seen the play, and that it quote couldn't have been big, but it was called.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentHe hasn't seen it, and he's sure of its size. That's a ruling.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorLook, I'm telling you, he also said in big moments the little stuff doesn't get called like that.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorIt cost them a touchdown, and it was a five-yard penalty!

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentFive yards. On a play from the one-yard line. Mathematically it moved them to the six.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorThe Chiefs have lost two straight after a five and oh start, and the Broncos own the AFC West. And Bo Nix still came looking for the handshake.

Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentOne viewer wrote: nine, dash, ten, Burrow MVP.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorThe court finds the score is a nine or a ten, the viewer isn't sure, and the court rules that's fine, because I never saw the game either and I'm calling it.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorI never saw my career either, and it was called.
