The Chiefs secured their spot in the Super Bowl with a surprising 17-10 victory over the Ravens. However, the momentum shifted decisively in their favor after rookie wide receiver Zay Flowers was penalized for taunting following a 55-yard reception late in the third quarter.
Flowers flexed over L'Jarius Sneed, who had held onto his leg for a bit longer than necessary. As a result of the taunting call, the Ravens, who were originally positioned at the 10-yard line, were pushed back to the 25-yard line.
Burrow didn't hide his frustration with the call, which, while technically correct, appeared to be discretionary. He vented his disappointment, likely on social media, as indicated by the reference to "X."
Flowers and the Ravens' fortunes took a turn for the worse as he fumbled at the one-yard line while attempting to dive into the end zone for a touchdown. This costly mistake led to further frustration, as Flowers expressed his anger by taking it out on a bench and injuring himself in the process.
