From Reddit fan threads · through Week 8 · 5-2

Season misery: 62
Worst week: 99; Week 8

what fans talked about, week by week

Season-long

From Week 1 complaints about announcers spotlighting KC holds to the Week 8 false start on Moore wiping out a go-ahead score, fans insisted the officials never favored the Chiefs.
“I don't wanna hear SHIT about refs helping the Chiefs. The Raiders got bailed out so many times, missed obvious calls and plays, but the Chiefs won in spite of them.”
