The consensus is that the Kansas City Chiefs Got the advantage of the whistle, but some have taken it a bit far.
Rob Gronkowski Even admitted in a recent interview with Fox News Digital that he thought that “something” was going on with the officials.
But another about whether the NFL is for the benefit of the Chiefs, which in turn give sportsbooks some extra money.

But that doesn’t happen, said an old oddsmaker.
“Not buying it. I just think it’s an aberration,” said Draftkings director of sports operations Johnny Avello in a recent interview with Fox News Digital.
Avello admitted that the chiefs “caught a few good phone calls and breaks for perhaps the last six months or so”, but sometimes that is just the way it goes.
“That will change at some point,” added Avello. “I don’t think the referees deliberately do something, I just think it happens and things are going their way.”
Avello admitted that the Chiefs offer an extra popularity that would lead to more commitment to proposition.
“The case is that the chiefs have kelce here, Kelce brings Taylor Swift, people see Taylor Swift, then suddenly more people are interested in the NFL, and we start to make props around Kelce and the whole team,” we said Avello.

But at the end of the day: “I don’t think teams are bigger than the game itself,” said Avello.
The Chiefs are currently 1.5-point favorites on Draftkings, a number that has not changed at all since it was originally opened almost two weeks ago.
“Usually there is a movement … nothing is moved on the side,” said Avello.
Avello, however, noted that 70% of the money and the commitment were on the underdog Philadelphia Eagles.
“In normal circumstances, when you get plus money on such a small point spread, this is gambling some gamblers: ‘I don’t think a team will win with one, so why am I going to the 1.5? can take plus money.

But can people use their leaders to bet against them? Possibly, but that is not a good strategy.
“If you bet money, and you want to win a game, I don’t think you should use the aversion factor. You have to bet with whom you really think the game wins,” added Avello.
