I had no favorite team. I sometimes pick a favorite as the game unfolds and it was slightly for Tampa.
KC got screwed on a few calls. I have to wonder if that woman ref called the penalty on Mathieu for jawing with Brady. There is no place for jawing penalties in a title game. Maybe the woman was acting like she was running her house. The call against Chiefs' Jones was also bad. You just don't call those in title games. Winfield was apparently getting back at Hill with the peace sign penalty. I wouldn't have called that either, but it was inconsequential anyway.
Also, if KC is playing grabby secondary defense all year and doing well with it, then calls on them should not be made in the title game. Reminds me of when Duke's commie coach whined to the refs in the Duke-Wisconsin championship basketball game. Wisconsin played no-foul-style all season and had only two fouls in the first half. Commie Coach K whined to the officials and, sure enough, more calls were made against the Badgers second half. Refs should never determine a game like that.
I'm not sure if the calls rattled KC and made them play worse. It certainly did the Badgers in the Duke-Wisconsin game. But the Badgers had their chances and still lost. The Chiefs made one or two bad timeout calls at the end of the first half. Not sure if Reid made those, and if that was him being out of the game. The Chiefs were still too short handed and were just outplayed, so it probably didn't matter anyway.
Oh yeah, the PC stuff was nonsense. I didn't watch a single commercial or any of the pop culture crap. All in all, a fairly enjoyable game.
