Based on Carl Cheffers Stats, Expect Lots of Flags and the Under in Super Bowl LVII

1. We’re hot on the heels of a horribly officiated AFC title game and #NFLRigged trending for more than 24 hours on Twitter, so you can fully expect the spotlight during Super Bowl LVII to be on referee Carl Cheffers.

And I have some bad news for all you loyal “Traina Thoughts” readers.

According to BetArizona.com, which was kind enough to send me some stats, Cheffers ranked first in total penalties called per game this season at 12.59. Cheffers also led all NFL refs in penalties called last season.

He also was first in total yards in penalties given per game at 109.
