NFL fans are convinced that the refs “rigged” the Kansas City Chiefs-Las Vegas Raiders game following a brutal game-changing call by the officials that helped Patrick Mahomes and company.
There has been no shortage of questionable calls by the refs that benefited Patrick Mahomes and company. This included the controversial pass interference against Daijahn Anthony of the Cincinnati Bengals, which wiped out a game-sealing fourth-down stop in Week 2. The Chiefs got a fresh set of downs, and Harrison Butker made good on the opportunity by kicking the game-winning field goal.
Once again, KC was on the right side of a head-scratching call against Vegas today.
With Kansas City up by four points in the final frame, Patrick Mahomes drew a “roughing the passer” penalty by K’Lavon Chaisson. Have a look at the replay, however, and it’s hard to comprehend why a flag was thrown here:

As you would guess, the call against Chaisson led to accusations that the refs “rigged” the game for the defending Super Bowl champions:

Mahomes flops on a little shove and gets a 15 yd penalty on the @raiders .
Some quarterbacks get creamed and no flag, Mahomes gets touched and gets fifteen yds closer to a touchdown.
The @NFL is totally rigged.— Stephen Misyak 🇺🇸 (@SMisyak) October 27, 2024
You're not allowed to touch Kermit – automatic flag

The Chiefs defeated the Raiders 27-20 to improve their perfect record to 7-0, while the slumping Raiders fell to 2-6. The two teams will meet again at Arrowhead Stadium in the Black Friday game.
Patrick Mahomes Owns The Raiders
With Sunday’s victory in Sin City, Mahomes is now a ridiculous 11-2 in his career against Las Vegas. And the two times he lost? In 2020 and 2023, but the Chiefs reached the Super Bowl both years anyway.
