Maybe. I confess I haven't watched every single Mahomes or Josh Allen game. And certainly I've never bothered to count up every bad call/non-call ever in their respective games. If there's a place where those stats are available I might be interested in taking a look around to see how they stack up.
My point was that the truly elite/special players that become the face of their leagues have always gotten special treatment, in any sport, since the beginning of time. It's practically a rule.
