Amid all the conspiracy theories about the NFL refs “rigging” games for the Kansas City Chiefs, a reporter decided to ask Patrick Mahomes about the officials point-blank.

Any NFL fan who uses social media frequently has come across non-stop memes, videos, posts and jokes about the refs cheating to help Patrick Mahomes and the defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs.

The conspiracy theory has spread so quickly that Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFL Referees Association executive director Scott Green had to publicly address it, with the latter calling the claims “insulting.”

Speaking to the media during Super Bowl week, Mahomes was hit with a bizarre question by a reporter, who asked him to name his favorite NFL referee. When Mahomes said all the NFL referees “are great”, the reporter came back with another savage question.

“Is there one that you give a Christmas card to every year,” to which Mahomes awkwardly states, “Not that I can remember.”

Well, Patrick Mahomes really couldn’t have handled those questions any better. But the unidentified reporter certainly won over some more fans by asking the three-time Super Bowl MVP the referee-related questions anyway.
