Travis Kelce’s blunt controversial take on officiating in Chiefs’ loss to Packers

Following the Week 13 loss to the Packers, Travis Kelce refrained from assigning blame for the defeat, demonstrating a reluctance to point fingers even amidst controversial officiating. Despite the contentious calls, particularly the uncalled pass interferences, Kelce chose not to criticize the referees. In a postgame media huddle, he asserted that the responsibility for the loss rests solely with the Chiefs, emphasizing their failure to mount a comeback against the Packers.

Kelce, who had four receptions for 81 yards but no touchdowns in the game, acknowledged their shortcomings without deflecting blame to external factors. The defeat saw Patrick Mahomes, along with Kelce’s partner in the game, being outperformed by Jordan Love. While it might be tempting to attribute the loss to officiating, Kelce maintained that the Chiefs themselves were accountable for their precarious position.

Looking ahead, Kelce expressed hope that the team would internalize the lessons from the loss as they prepared to face the Buffalo Bills in Week 14.
