49ers owner Jed York is still unhappy over a bad call against his team in the Super Bowl against the Chiefs four years ago.
York said this week that he still remembers the 44-yard pass from Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to Tyreek Hill in Super Bowl LIV that came on a third-and-15 with the 49ers leading 20-10 and seven minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.
It appeared the 49ers were about to win. Instead, that long completion set up the first of three Chiefs touchdowns late in the fourth quarter of what turned out to be a 31-20 Kansas City win.
York still thinks Nick Bosa was held and that Mahomes-to-Hill pass and that play should’ve never happened.
“I remember Nick Bosa getting held on third-and-long and that not getting called,” York said. “But it’s football. I should say this, I haven’t talked to anybody with Detroit, but I feel for them when you’re in a situation where you’re up and you think you can win a game and make it memorable and things go the wrong way. I’ve been on good sides of that and I’ve been on bad sides of that. When you’re up by 10 points against a team in a Super Bowl, thoughts are going through your head like, We’re going to have a parade, somebody’s going to Disneyland, this is going to be awesome, and then you don’t.”
The Chiefs’ offensive line is one of the most penalized units in the NFL. Three of Kansas City’s offensive linemen are in the top 20 for penalties committed.

Will these comments now impact the refereeing performance at Super Bowl 58? It feels like the 49ers are trying to push for the refs to pay attention to their star player and what happened to him in Allegiant Stadium on February 11th.
