Joe Burrow has given a strong response about the alleged help that Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs are receiving from the referees. A massive controversy has sparked after the AFC Championship game against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills.
During Super Bowl week, Dan Patrick asked Burrow directly: âDo you think Kansas City gets favorable treatment?â Joe didnât even hesitate to respond: âEverybody does. It just depends on the game. Some games you get some calls and some games you donât. Thatâs how it goes.â
However, when asked if he receives favorable treatment, the Bengals star laughed and said: âI wouldnât say that.â Undoubtedly, a big difference compared to what has happened with Patrick Mahomes in several calls.
Do the Chiefs get help from referees?
Joe Burrow assured that the Chiefs do not receive help from the referees. In fact, the Bengals quarterback gave a surprising response on The Dan Patrick Show when reminded about the controversial pass interference that cost Cincinnati the win in Week 2 against Patrick Mahomes.
âIf I was the quarterback of that offense, I would have been frustrated if we didnât get that pass interference call. 100%. It was close in that moment. If it was in the second quarter, itâs pass interference 9 times out of 10. In that moment, itâs probably a 50/50 coin toss, but, I donât blame them for that one.â
