Almost every fanbase in the league is over the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs, now competing for a three-peat, are constantly accused of having the league’s officials in their back pocket. Chiefs fans trolled Cincinnati Bengals fans on Sunday after a video went viral online of a questionable call.
The Kansas City Chiefs needed a big play
The Bengals led the Chiefs 25-23 with under a minute to go in the game. On a fourth-down-and-16, the Chiefs needed a miracle to keep the game alive and earn a first down. After scrambling to keep the play alive, Patrick Mahomes threw deep looking for Rashee Rice.
The ball fell to the turf.
Bengals win?
No.
The Cincinnati Bengals committed a penalty
Unfortunately for the Bengals, league officials dropped a yellow handkerchief to the ground because they ruled rookie cornerback Daijahn Anthony hit Rice before the Chiefs’ receiver was able to make the catch.
The pass interference penalty gave the Chiefs new life and the ball in Bengals territory. Mahomes would lead the Chiefs into field goal range and kicker Harrison Butker would drill the game-winner to give Kansas City a 26-25 win.
Chiefs fans troll Bengals fans
Bengals fans thought the officials bailed the Chiefs out. However, the video clearly shows Anthony hitting Rice way too early. Here are the best takes of Chiefs fans trolling the Bengals on social media after the game.
People need to realize the Bengals are just undisciplined and it’s not rigged

It’s the definition of PI, folks. If you disagree, you’re a Bengals fan or just hating. https://t.co/rxdXqyOogc

Sadly I think this is one of the few legit Mahomes bailouts on a final drive. It was clear PI to me. pic.twitter.com/nKLojUekVa

Bengals fans crying in the comments because their star receiver can’t control his emotions and their kicker can’t kick. Classic
