    Suspicious Video Has San Francisco 49ers Fans Claim NFL ‘Rigged’ Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl Win

    San Francisco 49ers fans thought several plays went the Kansas City Chiefs way in the Super Bowl. The Chiefs held on to win the Super Bowl by a 25-22 score in overtime on Sunday.

    The Kansas City Chiefs had a few conspiracies before the game

    There were many conspiracies surrounding the Chiefs heading into the Super Bowl. Many fans thought the NFL and the US government were conspiring to prop up the Chiefs this season so Kansas City’s tight end Travis Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, could endorse President Joe Biden for the 2024 election.

    The Kansas City Chiefs had a few favorable calls

    For most of Sunday night, the Chiefs and 49ers were locked into a close game. One call caught many 49ers fans off guard during the game. Mahomes stayed in the pocket to throw a pass nowhere near a Chiefs offensive player on a first-down and ten play in the fourth quarter,

    Should this have been called intentional grounding? Mahomes was still in the pocket and no receivers were nearby. #SBLVIII pic.twitter.com/NpWEpyzxbI

    Here are the best takes of 49ers fans calling the Super Bowl rigged.

    Absolutely obvious. Horrific no call. But expected

    — Offseason (@RealJBrothers) February 12, 2024

    If that first Mahomes intentional grounding was a borderline call, where was the call on the obvious one there?

    I'm starting to think my crazy friend is right that the @NFL is rigged.

    — Phil (@PD_collects) February 12, 2024

    49ers deserved that win. It’s so rigged I hope you guys can see it for what it is, truly rigged. Chiefs you guys got so lucky Taylor swift bailed you guys out.

    — adin (@adinross) February 12, 2024

    It’s Mahomes and RG you think they would call it😂

    — JB Colorado (@jldrb6062) February 12, 2024

    We all know that was intentional grounding

    — Shawn Smith (@shawneriksmith) February 12, 2024

    Wow. So KC Oline can just hold every play. Not a single penalty

    — nacho is the number one (@nachooliibre) February 12, 2024

    If this isn’t grounding they should remove the rule from the book.

    — Daniel Perkins (@perk9600) February 12, 2024

    Another rigged season. Disappointing

        There were poor calls on both sides. The officiating has been terrible. The horse collar charged against KC wasn’t a horse collar. The player had the jersey. The chiefs should have had first and goal towards the end of the game. Kelce was grabbed three times trying to get to end zone, flag! Ot missing the extra point would have solved the whole issue, unless Moody was part of rigging outcome!

          The marketing idiots of the nfl saw clown swift back when she started attending games and ran with it!! Reaching out to the clueless Gen that follows her and believe her music is good(it’s not) and attract a new group of minions to the nfl. Yeah it became more aware of the rigging for these two teams. There are and were better teams, but the nfl went with gimmicks such as clown swift. Just my opinion 🤷

          Kansas City did have the game rigged this is the second time they cheated the 49ers out of the Super Bowl it’s not wrong you know if they had to treat to win a Super Bowl they don’t deserve to win it and everybody with us who watch the game from start to finish continue Kansas City cheated by rights the 49ers should have won but do you think they’re going to do justice no but that’s okay because of 49ers going to come back even stronger I

          Well, with the billions of dollars bet the game was toast when betting was legalized. The Bengaks list the same way. There were at least 3 to 4 missed calls on KC March to get the winning field goal. Betting ruins homes, lives, and the integrity of players and referees

          You all needs to give credit where credit is due. Some of you just didn’t want KC to win again. All these excuses on a team cheating, games being rigged etc etc are all BS. Some of you said the same when Tom Brady and the Patriots was winning back to back.

        Cry babies, suck it up. Your team lost. Chiefs outplayed your team. With the great leadership of Andy Reid and the best quarterback of all times, Patrick Mahomes and team, the 49er’s were outplayed. A great effort from both teams. But don’t even try to claim the Chiefs won by cheating. They didn’t win by cheating, or by accident. They won because they are the greatest team in the league.

      Questionable calls or no calls both ways. Fairly positive there was an ineligible down field on the trick play TD, not called. TD stands.

        No bc the first pass went to deebo then they went down field. As long as they weren’t downfield prior to the purdy- deebo pass they second pass wouldn’t have been a penalty.

      I’ll bet not a single person complaining about the calls in the game has ever refereed an actual high-level sport. You are expected to see everything and instantaneously interpret the rules and apply them. It is a shame that we’ve become a country of conspiracy theories and denial. Watching it on TV and replays over and over is much different than field level viewing.

      Haha! That the new thing you lose don’t except it. Chiefs had firsts downs taken away in the 4th qtr by the same referee. Twice. He moved the spot back both times when that were clearly 1st downs and made them have to go o. 4th down. Stop Crying! You lost get over it.

        Yes, exactly!! Thank you for bringing that up. They quickly mentioned it then again, very quickly, changed the subject and never brought it up again! So true. Thank you for reminding me of that bad call. Chiefs won fair and square. Both teams played an amazing game but in the end, Chiefs won and deserved it. I understand the hurt and frustration of the team that loses but come on, someone has to so don’t go around saying it was rigged. Don’t be a poor loser. Show some class.

        The NFL isn’t rigged! All you Chief haters are mad because your teams didn’t make it. PERIOD! The officiating has been trash all year in EVERY game. Anyone who watches football weekly knows this. If everyone thinks the NFL has Taylor swift in their pocket, then why didn’t she play halftime show? Quit crying about being cheated….no one was cheated, sorry!

      Funny how all this chiefs “fans” are quick to say, “you lost, get over it!” And yet, if the tables were turned and you lost (any in the last 3 years), pretty positive you’d be complaining, crying etc., and wouldnt just give props, so stop it. Let’s not forget that mahomes is a crybaby, cries to the refs about every penalty called on him/the team. Or how about the clear anger issues that kelce has, I mean come on, bumping into Reid and almost knocking him over, reflects extremely poorly and can pretty much say he’s a crybaby as well. cheifs were rattled and frustrated most of the game, that was evident, let’s not forget that either.
      No one is even mentioning the fact that NFL decides to change the OT rules only for the superbowl, first game these rules have ever been played…interesting. Rules that weren’t implemented throughout the whole season so every team could get acclimated fairly. Or how about start the new OT rules in the new NFL season next year.
      Rigged. Only give props when it’s due, and it’s not. Sorry. chiefs bandwagon fans can proceed with their justifying whining now..
