The penalty that bugged me was Robinson's taunting on the 50th pass TD. He backpedaled in, and so assume he was raising his arms towards Mahomes, in a celebratory manner for the achievement. He certainly wasn't facing the defender that was behind him, so I really didn't think he was taunting. And I've definitely seen people backpedal into the end zone this year with no penalty.
Given that the officials were going to call it taunting, the Chiefs are lucky the officials stupidly said it happened after the TD. It probably should have negated the points and applied from the spot of the foul (his backpedaling started at the 15 iirc). Not that I’m agreeing with the call though.
