Chiefs at Vikings: What Was Jerome Boger's Crew Doing?

Generally, complaints about the officials are reserved for games in which your favorite team winds up on the short end of the stick. However, there were a couple of incidents from yesterday's game between the Minnesota Vikings and the Kansas City Chiefs that were fairly ridiculous.

The first incident came on the Chiefs' first drive of the afternoon. Facing 3rd-and-12 at their own 2-yard line, the Chiefs dialed up a long pass play for Alex Smith. Vikings' defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd blew past Chiefs' guard Ben Grubbs at the snap of the ball, so much so that Grubbs wound up being called for holding on the play.
