Clark Hunt, owner of the Kansas City chiefs, closed the conspiracy theory that the referees help the team to win.
Hunt, 59, said that he thought that people use the theory of the referee’s favoritism as an excuse to explain why the chiefs were so successful.
“You must almost laugh, because you know how everyone in the NFL wants to compete to win, and it is also for our guys. The referees do the best job possible. If you look at the statistics or a lot of statistics, This shows that we were on the wrong side of calls as often as we have been on the right side. “Hunt said in an interview with NFL Network.

“There is certainly no conspiracy, right? This is the nature of the game. And when you start to be very successful, people like to start making excuses for why you have the success.”
In the victory of the Chiefs over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC championship, there were two calls in particular which led the conversation concerning the referees.
The failed conversion of Buffalo Bills Josh Allen’s quarterrier on a QB Sneak has become a very debated subject because some observers wondered if the chiefs have in fact stopped a first descent.
The reception of the Large receiver of the Xavier Worthy chefs while fighting with Bills Safety Cole Bishop for the ball in the first half also had skeptical fans that the referees made the right call because it seemed that Bishop had a good grip on the ball.
Whatever the sanctions that attract the anger of the fans, one of the main reasons for the sustained excellence of the Chiefs is the quarter-back game Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs.

“I think it is true for all the big ones, and regardless of the sport we are talking about. Basketball, football, hockey, football, baseball, the big ones in the most important moments are their best and Patrick has shown that each year.
If Mahomes is continuing its level of excellent play in playoffs, the chiefs will have a good chance of becoming the first team in the history of the NFL to win three consecutive super bowls.
