Did the ref blow the whistle too soon and cost the Chiefs on Titans’ two-point try?

Chiefs fans won’t deny that Derrick Henry’s fumble wasn’t a fumble, but what about Marcus Mariota’s two-point conversion play on Saturday night?

The Titans went for a two-point conversion in the fourth quarter after scoring a go-ahead touchdown. Chiefs safety Daniel Sorensen broke into the backfield and caught Mariota. The Titans quarterback tried to break free and the ball squirted loose.

Frank Zombo scooped up the loose ball and raced to the end zone for what would have been two points. That would have given the Chiefs a 23-22 lead. Instead, the referee blew his whistle before the ball came out and the play was ruled dead.
