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/ |

People would much rather choose to believe they were cheated than deal with the emotions associated with a loss. Honesty brings with it responsibility, truth. Truth is seldom sweet; almost invariably bitter. Anger is much easier. Anger only ever confirms what we already believe about ourselves. Comfortable, lets us play the victim, makes us feel important. |

Bwahahaha the sheep talking about others deflecting the truth, much ironic, hypocrisy at its finest. If it helps soothe the deep wounds, you aren't stupid just deeply indoctrinated.

Torbert’s crew is still a dumpster fire, but we survived.

hmmm I thought they did fine... I mean we didn't see Chris Jones strip sack, recover, and brace himself on the way down being called a Roughing the passer.

I still don’t get the “no play” on 3rd down and if I were Cincy, I’d be frosty. And I think the holding on Humphrey that nullified the 2nd TD that became a FG was bogus. But it was not nearly as bad as a Cheffers game.

I believe that the Bengals fans have a legit gripe on the five down situation, other than that, the game was called pretty evenly

The refs blew a whistle in the endzone, the Raiders defense heard it -- and some quit playing when they did. The Bengals threw a touchdown, and the refs.... let it stand? They really need to figure out what to do in this scenario -- it's been an issue in the playoffs two years in a row. |

Of course, the Chiefs didn't take advantage, so who cares.

They didn't have a good game today.
What was the 3rd down redo all about? We didn't benefit with points, but my lord. |
