I think, sometimes, the NFL has results they desire and they have officials pull strings to ensure those results occur.
It's not something that frequently targets the chiefs. I don't think the Chiefs were 'targeted' here.
After the sob story in the pregame, the pining about Goff's firefighter daddy, and all the other emotional ploys caused me to predict the officials would try to prop up the rams, seeing it as the more marketable story.
It was worse than I expected and any time I predict the future It tends to cause me to lend validity to any theory or hypothesis that my prediction was based on. I expected the refs to pull some shit, and it was easily one of the worst officiated games I've ever seen. It could be a coincidence sure.. but geezus that's one HELL of a coincidence. Christ, there were like three penalties on Goff's TD run and this is the THIRD TIME this year the refs have called awful one sided games (pittsburgh, NE, and LA). Bad officiating is more convincing when it's swinging both ways. When it goes one way it's just biased officiating, which should be unacceptable. This crew embarrassed the NFL on Monday. I'm skeptical such one sided officiating was 'accidentally' that biased. It was bad.

Maybe Kansas City just doesn't have enough tragic stories to win the favor of NFL officials!
Maybe we could run a weekly saga of Berry's list of issues that keep him from playing? Might that garner some non-existent unnecessary roughness calls against the opposition?
Again, I'm sure the NFL is reading the rantings of a small market, fly-over team with Hunt as an owner, and
ing!
