WR DeAndre Hopkins Of The Chiefs Criticized The Referees And Fans After The Super Bowl… But Maybe He Hasn’t Realized That The Chiefs Only Paid For A Ticket To The Final, Not For The Victory!-kid

Chiefs WR DeAndre Hopkins’ blunt take on Super Bowl officiating amid ref controversy

DeAndre Hopkins didn’t love the officiating in Super Bowl LIX.

After an embarrassing 44-20 loss for the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX against the Philadelphia Eagles, receiver DeAndre Hopkins had some words for a specific group of NFL fans. With the Chiefs getting blown out in the Super Bowl, Hopkins questioned the media after all the talking they did about the Chiefs being favored by refs, per Ari Meirov on X.

“You know, I saw a lot of things in the media about the refs,” Hopkins said. “But, what y’all gon’ say now about the refs and us when there was a lot of touchy calls? Are y’all going to report that? Are y’all going to talk about the refs now?”

 

And while Hopkins’ post-game comments might come across as him being a sore loser or something like that, he’s saying what many people are thinking right now.

Heading into the Super Bowl, the NFL refs were almost a bigger topic than the upcoming game. And during Media Day, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce even turned the tables on reporters about officiating.

So, for Hopkins to feel like not only is the narrative false but it was proven in the biggest game of the season, that has to hurt a bit. Especially with Hopkins representing his late father before the game, it shows how important this game was to him.

 

This was also Hopkins’ first-ever Super Bowl appearance after 12 seasons in the NFL. Clearly, this game held importance to Hopkins.

So, when the officiating — in his words — was touchy, the ref debate is likely to come back full steam.

However, with more than a week of fans clamoring that the Chiefs were favored by the NFL and refs heading into Sunday, Super Bowl LIX couldn’t have disproven that narrative more if it tried.
