Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur has reportedly weighed in on the growing controversy, sparked by Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid’s alleged call for 31 NFL teams to file a petition demanding an investigation into all Philadelphia Eagles games amid accusations that referees were paid to favor the Eagles in winning Super Bowl LIX.

The firestorm began with a controversial offensive pass interference call against Eagles receiver A.J. Brown during Super Bowl LIX[1][2]. Former NFL head of officiating and current FOX analyst, Mike Pereira, called the bias theory “mythical nonsense”[5].

Here’s why LaFleur’s voice adds fuel to the fire:

Matt LaFleur: 'I thought he did a really nice job'

* **Brady’s Rebuke:** Seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady, now a FOX Sports analyst, criticized the offensive pass interference call against Brown, stating, “I don’t like that one bit… I hate that call to start the game”[1][2].
* **Emphasis on Letting Players Decide:** Brady emphasized that “in these games, you let the players decide it on the field”[1].
* **The “Rigged” Narrative:** Fans have taken to social media to accuse the NFL of favoring Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs[1].

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has dismissed claims that officiating crews are biased in favor of the Chiefs, describing the allegations as “ridiculous”[2][3]. The union representing NFL officials has also blasted “conspiracy theories” that officials have been tilting games in favor of the Kansas City Chiefs, calling the allegations “insulting and preposterous”[3][4][7]. The Chiefs have been penalized for 120 more yards than their opponents in the regular season and playoffs since the start of the 2022 playoffs[4].

Even with the controversy, no evidence suggests Ron Torbert, who refereed Super Bowl LIX, has a history of favoring the Chiefs[5].

Despite the pushback from the league and its officials, the controversy continues to simmer[5]. Some believe it is a full-blown NFL conspiracy to boost TV ratings with the presence of Patrick Mahomes[8]. Whether the growing public outcry will lead to any formal investigation remains to be seen.
