Did Bengals Head Coach Zac Taylor get caught on camera saying the Game is Rigged?
Did the Cincinnati Bengals get screwed? Well their fans are not the only ones thinking the NFL rigged the AFC Championship game last night. There was quite a bit of controversy last night, and there was even a part in the broadcast that showed Zac Taylor the Bengals head coach saying “It’s Rigged”.
So I wanted to show you this video, before I go deeper into it.
That is pretty telling! Taylor definitely said the game is rigged on National Television. The final minute of the game was insane.
Perhaps their biggest gripe came when the Bengals punted the ball away to Kansas City with the game tied at 20. Chiefs receiver Skyy Moore took the punt return 29 yards to right near midfield but Cincinnati fans contested that officials missed an illegal block in the back that would have negated the huge gain.
That was not the only crazy play. The most notable one occurred earlier in the fourth quarter with the game still tied, 20-20. Mahomes threw an incomplete pass intended for Jerick McKinnon on second down, bringing up third-and–9.
Then on the second 3rd and 9 play, Eli Apple was called for defensive holding giving the Chiefs a fresh set of downs.
Throw in the intentional ground call where he had a running back within a couple yards of the throw.
“#NFLRigged” was trending on Twitter through Sunday night into Monday morning, and now even the head coach for the Bengals was caught saying it. So let me ask you again, IS THE NFL RIGGED?
