I actually think the refs just aren't very good sometimes. I think the good teams get the benefit of calls for sure at times.
The problem with this argument is we're no longer the Alex Smith Chiefs, we are one of those darling teams. Look at how much time every single pregame show talks about Mahomes. ESPN spent a ton of time talking about the Chiefs in the pregame and the Rams had the more dramatic story with the fires. Heck, when we lost to Tom Brady the first thing everyone asked him in the post game and in the press conference was how good is Patrick Mahomes. And he's the greatest QB of all time. You could tell he was annoyed by it. The idea that we're the poor old Chiefs that no one cares about isn't based in reality at all. We're the team that's going to be getting calls. We just need a secondary that isn't completely overmatched defensively. |

I’m done trying to explain this stuff.
I just hope that the Chiefs are on the side being nudged when the games really matter. |

I believe there is unconscious bias in everyone. The fact that LA has suffered because of the fires had to be in the minds of the officials, they are human after all. I am not sure what, if anything, is going to be done about the holding that occurs on the Chiefs D linemen; I can remember an SI cover with Peypey on it and Tamba in a choke hold with no call. Something about a rip move where they claim the defender does it to themselves?
Even with the terrible officiating, and it was terrible, the Chiefs had the ball with three time outs and almost two minutes on the clock. Yes, Mahomes arm was hit on the interception however there was no need to take that chance. Just prior to that, the dropped interception by Scandrick would have ended the game. If that game were played in KC, the Chiefs win by double digits. |

It's shit like this that makes people wonder if it's a rigged system. Imagine if the chiefs had the ball on the 30 yard line to start the last drive? It's a penalty, the ref saw it and said something to Peters, but didn't throw a flag. What's up with that? |

I want Mahomes to develop to the point where we do what we did @Pittsburgh and just plain assed beat the opponent AND the refs. The NFL is foolish for perpetuating this BS. |

How long has Hill been flashing the peace sign and NOT received a penalty? And last night it was a penalty? Yet Peters can remove his helmet on the field and walk in front of a ref and NOT get a penalty? "All-Star"....yeah, right. (I'm not one to complain about officiating normally, but last night was a horrific night for the refs.)
