After the Texans lost to the Chiefs in the divisional round of the playoffs, their head coach DeMeco Ryans and players from the team made comments about having to play against both the Chiefs and the officials.

    I’m not sure if there Bills really get more calls than KC does. Having watched the Bills all season, though, I bet Josh Allen leads the league in begging for calls.

      Statistically, they do. They were third in the league in penalties accepted this season.

      Minnesota was first.

        Ah, well that might just be an artifact of getting to play the Jets twice a year, it probably skews the numbers

        Edit: Seriously, though, I wonder if anyone keeps track of RTP penalties separately …

        Edited edit: this site is interesting, it breaks it down by QB. Allen drew 7 more RTP calls, in 9 fewer games, than Mahomes…

          True.

          I just like that the narrative people are clinging to is directly contradicted by the numbers, and they sorta just ignore it.
