Chiefs committed 5 turnovers which was very uncharacteristic and Sean Payton himself said he thought we’d be vulnerable bc we had a game in Germany the next week.
Regardless of that you guys deserved the win. Congrats on winning your first game against us since Obama was President [Reply]

The last one is funny. Your entire board cries "rigged" after every KC win. Because clearly Mahomes/Reid/Kelce/Jones/Spags need a lot of zebra help to win. Much more so than, say, the 2015 Broncos. [Reply]

It’s not that we’re unable to acknowledge that other teams might be good.
It’s just . . . . . Your team . . . . . Is not. :-) They suck. Sorry.
You’re looking at another 3rd or 4th place finish.
Ravens are a good team. Bengals (assuming health) should be a good team. Texans will be a good team. Your team does not belong being mentioned with these teams, let alone the Chiefs.

Superfarce 50 season was the biggest sham of all time. That Broncos team was pure shit by the end of the year but Vincent Kennedy Goodell had to get involved and send 5 head out on top.
The Brady Patriots had never had games influenced against them by the official until that playoff year. It was unbelievable. Look at the difference in how that game was called and say the Patriots Chiefs AFCC at Arrowhead a few years later....and you Mule tools wonder why people called "rigged". Yes games are steered a certain way and if you don't believe that you Mule tools are fools [Reply]
I’m not suggesting that games are not steered or influenced at times by refs. I do not believe in a pre determined script. If this is correct, it’s an odd stat. KC has apparently not had an offensive holding penalty in any of the last 3 championship games. Kinda odd if true. [Reply]

Well, back in the Manning days, you would not even entertain such an idea, from your perch on Mount Arrogance. My, how things have changed since then... [Reply]

No, I've never said that there were not influences... I was always dismissive of the "it's rigged" narrative relating to a script or how the schedule was laid out for one team vs another. [Reply]
I've always said steered and I don't change that just because KC is on top. They definitely NEVER got the calls they've gotten with Pat before he became a star [Reply]

Like Cochise L. said, "Who has a worse memory than Donk Fan?" Nobody! [Reply]
Believe as you wish... I've never suggested that the league or any sport is 100% pure of any sort of bias. I have never believed it to be on the scale of most around here. [Reply]
