VIDEO: NFL Fans Are Convinced That The Chiefs-Steelers Christmas Day Game Was “Rigged” Following Multiple Fishy Calls
Football fans are teeing off on the NFL refs following several questionable game-changing calls in the Pittsburgh Steelers-Kansas City Chiefs Christmas Day game.
The Chiefs and Steelers were squaring off at Acrisure Stadium in the first of two Christmas Day games. But once again, a highly-anticipated football game has been overshadowed by the NFL refs making head-scratching calls.
For starters, Jaylen Warren’s rushing touchdown to put the Steelers on the board was called back by a questionable holding penalty on Darnell Washington. On the next play, Russell Wilson was picked off by Justin Reid:
“This is getting to be such a terrible product when the Chiefs play,” a fan wrote.
“Told you, Taylor Swift is the commissioner!!,” another joked.
“No shocker,” said a fan.
“All NFL Christmas team,” a fan wrote with images of NFL refs together.

“Typical Chiefs game… TD by the opposite team? Let’s throw a flag to negate the play,” a fan said.
“Unsportsmanlike on KC wasn’t a flag?,” asked a user.
“Nothing changes until we stop watching, which we won’t,” claimed another.
“If anyone is surprised, I feel sorry for you,” a fan wrote.

NFL Refs Can’t Shake Off Chiefs Favoritism Accusations
There have certainly been plenty of questionable officiating decisions that have favored the Chiefs this season, and today’s game against the Steelers hasn’t been any different. The fact most of Kansas City’s wins have come in one-score games has only added to frustration for anti-KC fans who believe the refs really are favoring Mahomes and company.
