**Cowboys OC Weighs In: Reid’s ‘Rigged’ Accusation Rocks NFL!**

Dallas Cowboys Offensive Coordinator Brian Schottenheimer has entered the fray as Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid reportedly calls on 31 NFL teams to file a petition demanding an investigation into all Philadelphia Eagles games, fueled by accusations that referees were paid to favor the Eagles in their Super Bowl victory!

The controversy stems from claims of biased officiating throughout the season, culminating in Super Bowl LIX. Critics cite specific calls they believe unfairly benefited the Eagles, leading to accusations of a “rigged” outcome.

Here’s why this story is exploding:

* **Reid’s Demand:** Andy Reid’s reported call for a 31-team petition underscores the seriousness of the allegations and the widespread distrust in the officiating[1].
* **Schottenheimer’s Perspective:** The Cowboys’ OC weighing in adds another layer of intrigue, given the heated rivalry between Dallas and Philadelphia.
* **DeAndre Hopkins’ Comments:** Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins questioned whether the media would report on “touchy calls” that went against Kansas City[1]. He noted that there were questionable calls on both sides, including an offensive pass interference against the Eagles early in the game[1][3].
* **Allegations of Bias:** Some claim that officials favorited the Chiefs[2][4][5].

Adding to the controversy, Fox broadcaster Tom Brady disagreed with an offensive pass interference call against Eagles receiver A.J. Brown during the Super Bowl[1][3]. However, the two teams were almost even in the penalty column at the game’s end, with the Chiefs assessed seven penalties for 75 yards and the Eagles eight for 59 yards[1].

The NFL Referees Association has dismissed these claims as “insulting and preposterous,” with Executive Director Scott Green thanking Commissioner Roger Goodell for dismissing the allegations[2][4][5]. Goodell himself has called the idea of biased officiating “ridiculous”[3][5]. Despite these statements, the controversy continues to rage[6].
