KC has received 4 new sets of downs with penalties today so far.

They definitely have that Patriots--esque ability to not get flagged for things the other teams do. I don't think there have been really any awful calls today but they definitely get some favourable help from the refs with what does and doesn't get called on them.

And they really don't need the help.

Every team and fanbase thinks they get screwed by refs. 

Refs are just inconsistently inconsistent especially since the NFL doesn't make them full time positions with enough training, don't have enough of them on field at once, and doesn't give them the full resources with video assistance that they should.

Given how few games there are, and how the best teams play in more them, there will definitely feel like there are trends. But the sample sizes are way small to attribute any real bias in these situations.
