NFL Fans Are Convinced The Broncos-Bills Divisional Round Game Was “Rigged” Following Sketchy Finish [VIDEO]

NFL fans think the officials “rigged” the Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos Divisional Round game after a controversial finish.

The thrilling showdown between the Denver Broncos and the Buffalo Bills went to overtime. Both teams had to punt on their opening possessions, setting the stage for Bo Nix and the Denver offense to play hero.

On a 2nd-and-12 situation in Buffalo territory, Nix’s pass to Courtland Sutton fell incomplete. But the officials curiously flagged Taron Johnson for pass interference, giving Denver the ball at the Buffalo 36:

Come on ref the Buffalo Bill cornerback doesn't even touch the wide receiver for Denver and you call pass interference. Call on him. What about the call earlier in regulation you guys fucking suck pic.twitter.com/7hr3jM8hW7

Then, on a 2nd-and-12 situation, Tre’Davious White was flagged for a defensive PI call that essentially iced the game:

That set up an easy field goal for veteran kicker Wil Lutz, sending Denver to the AFC Championship Game.

Unhappy fans accused the NFL refs of “fixing” the game for the Denver Broncos:

“If there was ever a reason to stop watching the NFL its today. Absolutely unwatchable and rigged against the Bills pass interference calls and gambling have ruined this game,” one fan said.
