NFL Referees Just GOT EXPOSED 📸 .. AGAIN!! 🤦‍♂️🚨

In this sports short, we're revisiting the ongoing issue of inconsistent referee calls in the NFL. Just when we thought the controversy was over, it happened again. Patrick Mahomes was left fuming after a game-changing call against the Chiefs. Fast forward to Monday Night Football, where Jalen Waddle found himself in a strikingly similar situation, but this time, no flag was thrown. Join us as we break down the frustrating inconsistency in NFL officiating and its impact on the game.

@MyNBA2k23-99 yes they are , I used to live near the CISCO company that does the line on TV (other things as well) and they put it on the yard line where the ball is spotted, not only that but sometimes it messes up and it's blatantly obvious, this is not one of those times..

😂 dumbass, doesn't matter it's league rules the fact that a different crew didn't call that makes it even worse it means the refs literally have control of the game wether a penalty is one or not

[@legionandsons2222]

It's clearly a penalty in both games yet it was only called in one game and not the other literally exact same situation that's the problem it should've been called on waddle as well, but then we get the oh the refs missed it, no they didn't a refs job is literally that and he let it go so yeah it's a problem

Then the KC refs would get fired for all of the calls that go to the Chiefs that shouldn't have been calls or should have been calls. But, we are all human and we all make mistakes, but with these refs helping the Chiefs win all of the time off of the refs, so I don't think that would be a good idea and I would want to hear the explanations.

Exactly. You hit the nail on the head. Pat McAfee had even said it at the beginning of the season. Until the NFL hires full time refs, there will always be the gambling factor.
