Colin Cowherd called out the NFL and the referee\u2019s decision to support Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. Here\u2019s a look at what the analyst said.<\/p>\n

Sports Analyst Colin Cowherd is known for speaking his mind whenever necessary. Cowherd was in a similar situation when the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Houston Texans to make it to the AFC Championship game.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Chiefs won the Texans after putting up a good show, but their success brought in a lot of controversy. Cowherd wasn\u2019t surprised when a few calls went the Chiefs way. Patrick Mahomes is undoubtedly one of the best NFL players of his time. He helps the team in crucial situations, but Cowherd believes that he can manipulate the referees when needed.<\/p>\n

The 61-year-old never hesitated to speak what he felt was true. While some believe it was harsh, Colin Cowherd spoke whatever he felt was right.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the way it is. You know, with the Patriots, it was Spygate, it\u2019s Deflategate. Let\u2019s not mention that Brady was actually better, statistically, post-Deflategate. But nobody likes somebody at the mountaintop forever, and so now it\u2019s always the refs. The NFL is very protective of quarterbacks, very protective, and most fans think they are overly protective of Patrick,\u201d Cowherd said .<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“They say in baseball, tie goes to the runner. In the NFL, tie goes to the QB. If you’re not sure, call it… It’s not challengeable. It’s not going to be.”<\/p>\n
