After her ‘meeting’ with an official before the Chiefs’ win, NFL fans accuse Taylor Swift of influencing the referees.
NFL fans are accusing Taylor Swift of influencing referees, as the Kansas City Chiefs continue their unbeaten run this season.
Some speculate that Swift’s involvement with the Chiefs is linked to questionable officiating in their favor.
Chiefs’ controversial victory
The Chiefs, defending Super Bowl champions, improved to 9-0 after defeating the Denver Broncos 16-14.
The win came thanks to a last-second blocked field goal. However, the victory raised eyebrows due to a series of calls that appeared to favor Kansas City.
Swift’s encounter with a referee
Before the game, a report surfaced about Swift’s brief interaction with referee Sarah Thomas.
Landon Reinhardt from KSNT Sports tweeted that Thomas was on a FaceTime call with family. He also mentioned that Swift had briefly met with the referee. The exchange sparked debate about officiating bias.
Fan reactions to the allegations on social media
On social media, Swift’s presence before the game only fueled ongoing accusations of biased refereeing. Fans quickly took to social media to express their disbelief.
One fan wrote: Lol Landon not helping with the chiefs refs allegations.
Another user remarked: What a shock, this league is literally the WWE at this point. It’s clear as day.
A third fan claimed that the referee’s apparent admiration for Swift was “Helping the Chiefs get an automatic win.”
Other comments included sarcastic remarks, with one fan saying, That explains a lot of these calls! Looks real impartial.
Another user complained: We all know that games are rigged when the Chiefs play. And that they sold their souls to Satan, but this is ridiculous.
More controversial calls this season
This wasn’t the first time the Chiefs’ games raised suspicions of biased officiating.
In Weeks 2 and 3, the team benefitted from questionable penalties, which frustrated fans of other NFL teams. The perception of special treatment for Kansas City continued to grow.
To add more fuel to the fire, Patrick Mahomes was seen talking to a referee during a broadcast on NBC. Fans criticized the moment, further increasing skepticism about the Chiefs’ treatment by officials.
As the Chiefs aim to maintain their perfect record, they will face the Buffalo Bills on November 17. Fans will continue to monitor whether questionable officiating persists in their favor.
The speculation surrounding Taylor Swift’s connection to NFL referees is just the latest twist in the ongoing debate about biased officiating in Chiefs games. With more fans growing disillusioned, the controversy is unlikely to die down anytime soon.
