Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes dismissed accusations of favorable treatment from referees in the team’s Divisional Round win against the Texans on Saturday. Despite controversial calls that helped Kansas City secure a win, Mahomes focused on making plays on the field to determine the game’s outcome. Fans speculate that the Chiefs, like the Patriots before them, receive more beneficial calls. Some Houston players even admitted feeling like they were playing against the referees and not just the team. During the game, a roughing the passer call against the Texans negated a first-down sack and led to a Chiefs touchdown. Mahomes, known for benefiting from calls on hits, also acknowledged one instance where he may have gone too far in trying to draw a penalty. Despite the controversy, the Chiefs emerged victorious and will face the Bills in the AFC Championship game with a third consecutive Super Bowl appearance on the line. Mahomes and his team are prepared to take on MVP candidate Josh Allen in what is expected to be an exciting matchup. Fans will be watching closely to see if Mahomes can lead his team to another Super Bowl appearance without any referee controversies.
