The tables turned this Thursday night in Dallas because the referees didn\u2019t thank the Chiefs the way they needed to. Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs felt what it\u2019s like being on the wrong end of questionable calls.For years, critics have accused officials of showing biased decisions when it comes to the Chiefs and Mahomes. But Thanksgiving\u2019s TNF game between the Cowboys and Chiefs showed us the other side of the coin and fans can\u2019t stop talking about that.<\/p>\n
Patrick Mahomes and the referees didn\u2019t seem in sync in the Cowboys\u2019 AT&T Stadium. The Chiefs were flagged 10 times for 119 yards and lost 31-28 at AT&T Stadium. Jerry Jones\u2019 team has literally remained undefeated since their defensive adjustment after the trade.<\/span><\/p>\n The most controversial flag for Chiefs came on Xavier Worthy in the third quarter. The penalty wiped out a first down and killed Kansas City\u2019s momentum cold.<\/p>\n The referee walked over to speak with Mahomes and Andy Reid as the Chiefs continued to argue the call. He appeared to address the tension and settle things down.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m not always going to agree with the call, but the calls were made,\u201d Reid\u00a0said\u00a0after the game.<\/p>\n ESPN\u2019s Jeremy Fowler pointed out the one-sided officiating. Former NFL QB Dan Orlovsky called it out during the broadcast, noting the refs favored Dallas from kickoff.<\/p>\n Pat scored four TDs in total in the match, but due to numerous penalties from officials, they couldn\u2019t keep pace with the Cowboys and ultimately lost.<\/p>\n Kansas City\u2019s dynasty\u00a0has benefited from favorable calls\u00a0over the years. Now they experienced what every other fanbase complains about. The irony wasn\u2019t lost on anyone watching.<\/p>\n Social media exploded with mockery after the game. Fans who\u2019ve watched the Chiefs get preferential treatment for years showed zero sympathy.<\/p>\n \u201cKC fans can cry me a river,\u201d one user posted on X.<\/p>\n Another added, \u201cListening to KC fans cry about the refs & losing this game just made Thanksgiving so much better\u00a0 The schadenfreude was palpable across platforms. Years of perceived favoritism came back to bite Chiefs Kingdom.<\/p>\n \u201cKC fans complaining about the refs is the most ridiculous thing of all time,\u201d another added.<\/p>\n The fourth shared, \u201cJust Divorced from refs\u00a0 That one gained serious traction. The divorce metaphor perfectly captured the shift in officiating dynamics Thursday night.<\/p>\n A random IG user shared, \u201cIt\u2019s funny when the chiefs lose. The loss dropped the Chiefs to 6-6, putting their playoff chances in a really dangerous situation. The pressure is rising now. Reid needs to win out to stay in the playoff race, which means beating Houston, Miami, Pittsburgh, Arizona, and Tennessee without any margin for<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs face online mockery as fans react to them getting strict calls from zebras.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":123765,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-123764","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"\nNFL Fans Roast Chiefs Over Officiating Complaints<\/b><\/h2>\n
