I get their lovefest with Mahomes being the current face of the league but things are beyond predictable with this team and you get the sense that Reid/Mahomes/etc know they always have the refs on their side.
Sure, if you take away the 4 or so TDs that were taken off the board this year due to ticky tack calls, the two unsportsmanlikes for mean words (one that cost them a win), one of the worst roughing calls in NFL history, and the non-calls against JJSS and the James' body slam of Kelce.
Are people actually this delusional?

And the refs apparently think it's cool to mug the KC receivers for 90% of the game with no penalty. If they actually called that stuff in a strict manner, KC might put 40 points per game on the board. Two of their drives in the first half last night were killed by defensive holding & pass interference on 3rd down. It's more of the same stuff Tennessee was doing a couple weeks ago.
