“Friendly reminder since most Chargers fans (and some other NFL fans) want to blame the refs. Chiefs had double the penalties called on them. 6 for 54 yards. Chargers had 3 for 25 yards. Please stop blaming the refs, it’s not a good look. & missed calls happened for both teams,” another user wrote.

“The thing about most Chiefs fans, we respect Herbert. We don’t dislike him. And we give him his credit. Chargers fans? They stay disrespecting Patrick,” another user wrote.
