Referee Ron Torbert's crew assigned to work Chiefs-Bengals game
Oh great, almost as bad as Cheffers.
Ninth-year NFL referee Ron Torbert and his crew have been assigned as the officials for the AFC Championship Game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals. Torbert hasn’t officiated a Chiefs game this season, but fans will remember him from 2021, and not in a good way. He was an unscheduled white-hat substitution for John Hussey against the Bengals during their Week 17 regular-season loss. During that game, Torbert’s crew called 10 penalties for 83 yards against Kansas City. It was the second-most penalties the Chiefs had called against them in a single game that season. If we’re only considering the 2022 NFL season as evidence, Torbert and his crew have been among the best in the league in terms of penalty volume. In 16 games officiated, their 172 penalties called are good for the fourth-fewest in the NFL. That said, once a penalty is called by Torbert’s crew, expect it to stand. Their 20 dismissed penalties are the second-fewest in the NFL this season. They’ve officiated fairly even on the home (89) and away (83) fronts so far this season. As far as how this crew officiates, they’re definitely not a “let them play” crew and they almost always side with the offense. Torbert’s 17 defensive pass interference penalties tie for the second-most in the league this season. For comparison’s sake, they’ve only called four offensive pass interference penalties all year. The Chiefs lead the NFL in defensive pass interference penalties this season (14) while the Bengals are right around the league average (6). Basically, expect Ja’Marr Chase to continue to get away with pushing off and Chiefs defenders to be penalized for any contact downfield. https://chiefswire.usatoday.com/2023...nnati-bengals/ |

Pretty sure you posted last year that Torbert calls for the home team correct? What are we worried about? I'll give you Cheffers in the Superbowl, I don't trust that guy at all.

It's about believing your team gets DELIBERATELY screwed time and again and still tuning in. If you can see the absolute ridiculousness in that, I don't know what to tell you. |

It is only with certain refs and there are stats that prove that there is reason to believe that those few refs are deliberately screwing the Chiefs. Those stats were in a thread here a little while back. It made it to several of the shows and GMFB even did a story about it and did not discount the thoughts that there was something unusual surrounding those refs.

It won't matter for you because you are not going to be there! Enjoy the SB from the sidelines like the rest of the teams that lost.

For some it's also about having someone to blame. They want to be angry at the refs after a game instead of depressed about a loss. It's less painful. Same thing with conspiracy. Easier to say you got screwed than to feel upset about a loss.

This is so narrow minded, but what can you expect from a bunch of sheep, we all know you can't handle the truth.. The people you're describing are bitchy Chiefs fans that don't know what to believe, so they say the game is rigged or half way rigged

Just open your mind to the one and only, single conclusion that must explain everything no matter what has happened or will happen. You're just closed minded thinking it's anything else or a combination of things.

Edit: I don’t think anyone has said we are gonna lose this game to the refs. It’s a thread discussing the ref crew we drew. Discussion about past games and results do factor into the thread. But I expect the reffing to be unbiased tomorrow. |
