Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs remain strong in their pursuit of winning a third consecutive Super Bowl. However, the attacks against them continue as fans and experts claim that referees are supposedly helping the defending champions.
This was the response from the legendary tight end when his brother Jason asked him on the New Heights podcast if they enjoyed being the villains of the NFL in the dynasty built alongside Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes.
āI love it. At one point in time, it wasnāt that. Iām enjoying doing this with the guys that we have in there because itās like it just makes us even more of a family. You just circle the wagons.ā
What happened with Travis Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and the referees?
Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs have been severely criticized for alleged calls by referees favoring them. In the game against the Bills, the controversial plays included a possible interception by Patrick Mahomes that ended up as a catch by Xavier Worthy and an apparent first down by Josh Allen that was overturned by the officials.
The Bills, through names like Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane, have publicly complained about it. Kelce has a strong response for their rivals who, at least in the postseason, have not been able to overcome the Chiefs.
