Football fans are convinced that the NFL refs “rigged” the Kansas City Chiefs-Los Angeles Chargers ‘Sunday Night Football’ game that had several controversial calls and non-calls.
Matthew Wright booted the game-winning field goal off the left upright and in to extend the Chiefs’ record streak of one-score wins to 15. 10 of their 12 wins have been decided by a single score, though some folks will tell you that the NFL refs have something to do with that.
As you can see in the posts below, it appears as though the Chiefs’ offensive line got away with several clear-as-day holding penalties against the Chargers, to say nothing of this questionable defensive PI call on the visitors:

‘Cheifs always get away with holding watch the Super Bowl clips,” said a fan.
“the Refs screwed the Chargers tonight they were multiple players on the Chiefs that the refs did not call holding calls on KC o-line that should been called,” wrote another.
“I’m trying to figure out how can the RT TACKLE move before the ball is snapped on every passing play and the Ref never throws a flag on him. You every other team they get flagged for it and this happens in every KC game. That is BS too the fullest,” a fan wrote.
“TL;DR It was a standard Chiefs game,” another said.
Narrative Of NFL Refs Helping Chiefs Won’t Go Away
No matter how good of a football team you are, it takes one-in-million luck to win all the one-score contests that Kansas City has won dating back to last season. So you can’t expect the narrative of the NFL refs helping the Chiefs to end as long as they keep winning, especially in heart-pounding fashion.
