The Chiefs played the Buffalo Bills on January 26, 2025, at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, during the AFC Championship.

The Kansas City Chiefs cleared their last hurdle to the historic Super Bowl after defeating the Buffalo Bills. However, some NFL fans argue that the Chiefs’ victory was undeserved, citing preferential treatment from the referees.The Chiefs secured a 32-29 victory over the visiting Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship game, earning a spot in the Super Bowl against the NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles. Nevertheless, some fans believe their win was rigged, with some even accusing the NFL of scripting the outcome.One user began with a simple accusation, writing, “#nfl is rigged [sic] button————————>.” Another fan expressed frustration, “🙄 again all over…with refs favoritism for Chiefs lets [sic] see how this Super Bowls goes.” A third fan suggested, “Just as the nfl [sic] scripted it. If you don’t think this game was scripted, look at the refs. Unreal.”

A fan was particularly critical, asking, “Just wondering, are you seriously proud of a team that ONLY WINS because of the refs? When EVERYONE, commentators, other players, and coaches notice how rigged this is it makes football almost unbearable to watch. But hey go on celebrating your ‘win.'”Another user shared their discontent with the officials, “Terrible Refs in that game. Its like its rigged or something… [sic].” One fan vowed to tune out, “Won’t be giving no attention to the Scripted Bowl this year, quite frankly, I’m losing interest in the NFL with the continuous rule changes and the refs pampering Mahones and the Chiefs.”

A disappointed viewer echoed similar thoughts, “I will barely be watching! I am annoyed & very disappointed with how the refs handled the Chiefs & Bills game. It’s hard to watch!!!! Sick of the Chiefs! Let’s go Hurts & Barkley!”
