“There is a flag,” CBS play-by-play standby Jim Nantz announced to the masses watching at home. Kevin Harlan, calling the game for Westwood One Radio, echoed the call. Except, no penalty had been called. The play would count. The Kansas City Chiefs were one clock-killing drive away from a third straight Super Bowl.

While the crowd at Arrowhead Stadium erupted in joy, Jim Nantz on the CBS broadcast quickly said there was a flag on the play, giving Bills fans a little bit hope during a very dark moment. But then talk of the flag quickly went away as refs apparently didn't throw one and no penalty was called.
