Yes. As SNL's Church Lady would say, "How coveeeenient !"

We completely disagree on the refs and I’ll leave it at that.

I'll answer your question ( singular ) not questions ( Plural ).

Who out scored whom in second half?

Bengals scored 14 and the Chiefs scored 10. 

In the fourth quarter, the Bengals scored their seven at 1:30 into the fourth quarter and generated only 40 yards since, with an interception and a punt following a 3rd down sack. 
Chiefs scored only 3, but it was to win the game and take them into the Super Bowl.

Sure. Games rigged. No sense in drafting or even playing anymore. They rigged it for us last year now don't like us. Sure.

Influenced, not rigged.   BIG difference.

Just going off of the thread title and the dozens of posts.

I wouldn't say it was 100 percent rigged neccessarily, more that today's refs are highly, highly incompetent.

NFL needs to change their hiring practices, standards, training, what have you for the dudes in the black and white stripes or these types of games will continue to happen.

Yep, same ones that allowed the Tee Higgins touchdown too after he ripped Ramsey down by the face mask.

Oh, the almighty "long term poster"...they know best right?.....Just because a few posters have their little safe space doent mean that this board isnt a good example of the average Bengal fan,  but thats something you cant seem to grasp....  and its not so because "you havent seen me post here"?...  could you get anymore ridiculous

I'm still not convinced that they actually saw that one . I think they missed seeing the facemask. They did not miss the block in the back  last night. Looked right at it. Also. , hey were intentional about the bad ball placement throughout the entire game

I am just the messenger. Fans around the country (not just Bengals fans) believe the Bengals game was rigged. KC covered the spread and the golden boy of the NFL is back in the Super Bowl.

We still should have won, but NFL refs and Mr. G. needs to address the poor officiating in this game.

The NFL didn't tear up the Bengals' OL.

I don't think the game is rigged, but the memes have been lit

And it's not the ass-kicking they made it out to be. All 4 games were decided by a FG.

I think the refs were exceptionally bad and they brought it upon themselves to make people question if its rigged. That being said, I also think we played poorly and made too many mistakes. Both things are possible at the same time.

As far as the NFL being rigged, I refused to even consider it for most of my adult life, but the truth is, the sports gambling world has way too much money for me to ignore the fact that they most likely at least try to use it to influence outcomes. The only reason I didnt believe it could happen before is because I didnt want to.

And that's why I think, with a healthy o-line, we win. So we will be back. Likely, so will they, and we will do this again. Like Burrow said, the window is as long as he is QB and I see no reason to doubt that.

To me, that seems like a reasonable answer as to why Burrow's pass was IG whereas Mahomes' was not. 

Burrows pass was well behind the los.

Chiefs had more yards, far more passing yards, more first downs, more yards per play, allowed fewer sacks, had fewer turnovers, won time of possession but yea, it was the refs. Damn refs. Always against the Bengals.

Well actually we lost Cappa in the Ravens game a game we may not have to had played if home field in the playoff game was going to be determined by a coin flip. So in a way they did. Assuming they would have rested our starters.

The o line play really hampered us, Ossai made a bad decision, and we made some mistakes.....but I'm not going to pretend the officiating was even on the level of awful. It was complete horse shit.

Morgan was hit in the back but the most egregious block in the back was by Chief's #47 Darius Harris on either Joe Bachie or Clay Johnson (It was a 40 number couldn't tell which one).  It happened right in front of our bench, right in front of the ref, and that is what sprung the Chief's returner.

Why?  Burrow was also hit in his throwing motion.  Basically the officials decided that they knew his intent and ignored this aspect of the rule.
