‘Obvious False Start’ … Controversial Missed Call Leaves Bucs Fans Outraged After Tight Loss to Chiefs

Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans are outraged after late missed calls against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers suffered a soul-crushing loss on Monday Night Football in Week 9, as they fell 30-24 in overtime against the Kansas City Chiefs. They’re now 4-5 on the season and in a dangerous position as they’re without their two star wide receivers.

To make the loss just a bit more painful for Tampa Bay, the squad had an opportunity to put the game away. Having scored late in the game, Todd Bowles chose a conservative play call and kicked an extra point to tie the game. They ended up losing in overtime.
The Buccaneers’ unwillingness to go for a two-point conversion for them to win the game cost them a potential big upset win on the road against the Chiefs, which would have seen them knock off an undefeated squad.
