I've never heard this much "referee/cheating" talk regarding the NFL (Chiefs)

It just all feels so hopeless ngl. Like there have been multiple times where it's like the cheifs have failed, or the other team does something good, just for it to be wiped out. at a certain point it's like damn what do you gotta do to beat these nikkas?
nikka acting like he’s speaking on the current Trump presidency. Go outside and get some air. Again, when rules get changed cause the Chiefs don’t get a chance to score in OT, then I’ll consider all the bytching yall doing. Matter of fact, a lot of you were the ones whining about the Bills not getting a chance in OT to make things right, totally dismissing they fukked up with 13 seconds left in regulation.

Kinda crazy. Social media, YouTube, real life as well.

We heard about the Patriots spying and the balls etc, but those weren't regarding the refs in-game. And yes we knew you couldn't hit Brady too hard, but it feels different now with all this talk.

Everyone is talking about it either being blatant, or some saying it seems odd....but there's nothing to it and it shouldn't detract from their greatness.

Superbowl should be interesting

So you can only mention one memorable call in their favor, in 19 seasons?
No. I was specifically responding to the post about name a big call that was made in their favor. The Tuck Rule was the first and huge. I say it started their run, because Tom Brady was in for Drew Bledsoe...never to be seen again.

I actually don't think the refs favored Pats like that during their run. Aside for protection against new golden boy Brady, which ended up being used for almost all pocket QBs, I think they had regular missed calls as in the normal flow of the game. However, the Pats/Beli did cheat in other ways...but that can't be blamed on the refs.

Even when people break down the stats and show people that other teams get more calls in their favor you got idiots sticking to the narrative due to being salty.
This was true of the Patriots, not the Chiefs. The stats actually show that they do get more calls. Like I said, it gets highlighted more when you’re on top like it was with the Patriots but unlike with the Pats, in certain situations, the data does show that the Chiefs get more calls. You can attribute that to whatever you want.

The Patriots did not cheat, that’s what funny. The new age misinformation that people are claiming is harming the Chiefs actually tarnished the Patriots more. To this day, people don’t actually know what the Patriots were accused of doing and what was actually proven. Patriots fervor is a result of New York media hating on a Boston dynasty. It’s why other coaches called BS and why their winning percentage was GREATER after said supposed scandals. The Patriots literally went 10 years without winning. You think that they suddenly decided let’s stop cheating for a decade?

The Chiefs aren’t cheating and I don’t think there’s a grand conspiracy. I just think that human bias is giving them the benefit of the doubt on key plays every game and because of the fact that they’re not outright dominant and people want to seem them lose - all those close calls in their favor are magnified.

Sustained greatness breeds contempt. If they can't outright beat you on the scoreboard, they'll simply attempt to minimize the achievement.

It's because people are whiny ass bytches and lacking intelligence. I've seen in game threads calls that are clear penalties and yet you'll get the "see there the refs go again". Just like last year's super bowl where there were multiple plays that could've been Chiefs first downs that were marked short that get completely ignored, yet when the Chiefs get a favorable call that gets exaggerated and proof of cheating. Like I said after the Houston game, that was a game fans had a right to be pissed about because the Texans got done dirty by the refs. But in most of these games there are multiple calls that favor both teams only the ones that benefit the Chiefs are highlighted and talked about ad nauseum to the point people start believing there is a legit conspiracy.

If the Chiefs were dominating and winning by 14+ those same calls wouldn't be questioned. It's because all these games are 1 possession last drive critical moments
