NFL fans are convinced that the refs “rigged” the Kansas City Chiefs-Las Vegas Raiders game following a brutal game-changing call by the officials that helped Patrick Mahomes and company.

There has been no shortage of questionable calls by the refs that benefited Patrick Mahomes and company.

This included the controversial pass interference against Daijahn Anthony of the Cincinnati Bengals, which wiped out a game-sealing fourth-down stop in Week 2.

The Chiefs got a fresh set of downs, and Harrison Butker made good on the opportunity by kicking the game-winning field goal.

Once again, KC was on the right side of a head-scratching call against Vegas today.

With Kansas City up by four points in the final frame, Patrick Mahomes drew a “roughing the passer” penalty by K’Lavon Chaisson.

Have a look at the replay, however, and it’s hard to comprehend why a flag was thrown here:

As you would guess, the call against Chaisson led to accusations that the refs “rigged” the game for the defending Super Bowl champions:

The Chiefs defeated the Raiders 27-20 to improve their perfect record to 7-0, while the slumping Raiders fell to 2-6. The two teams will meet again at Arrowhead Stadium in the Black Friday game.

Patrick Mahomes Owns The Raiders

With Sunday’s victory in Sin City, Mahomes is now a ridiculous 11-2 in his career against Las Vegas. And the two times he lost? In 2020 and 2023, but the Chiefs reached the Super Bowl both years anyway.

Controversial Calls Spark Outrage in Chiefs-Raiders Game

The NFL’s Week 8 matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Las Vegas Raiders was marred by a series of controversial calls that have ignited a firestorm of debate among fans and analysts alike.

The most contentious moment came late in the fourth quarter, with the Chiefs leading by four points.

Raiders defensive end K’Lavon Chaisson was flagged for roughing the passer on Patrick Mahomes. The penalty extended the Chiefs’ drive, allowing them to run more clock and ultimately seal the victory.

Replays of the incident, however, raised serious questions about the legitimacy of the call. Many viewers and experts argued that the contact between Chaisson and Mahomes was minimal and that the penalty was excessive.

The questionable call has fueled speculation that the referees may have been biased in favor of the Chiefs, a team that has benefited from several controversial calls in recent seasons.

This isn’t the first time that the Chiefs have been on the receiving end of favorable officiating.

In Week 2 of the 2023 season, a controversial pass interference call against the Cincinnati Bengals allowed the Chiefs to extend a crucial drive and ultimately win the game.

The recurring nature of these questionable calls has led to increased scrutiny of the NFL’s officiating department.

Fans and analysts are calling for greater transparency and accountability in the review process. As the league continues to grapple with these issues, it is clear that the integrity of the game is at stake.
