đ¨BREAKING: Texans Icon J.J. Watt Exposes Series of Referee âRigging Callsâ That Cost 49ers Their Game Against Texans

HOUSTON, TX â In a shocking revelation that has sent shockwaves through the NFL community, Houston Texans legend J.J. Watt has publicly accused game officials of making a series of âriggedâ or deliberately biased calls during the Texansâ controversial win over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night.
The matchup â which ended in a nail-biting 27â24 Texans victory â is now at the center of a growing controversy after Watt, known for his integrity and deep respect for the game, spoke out on national television.
âSomething Didnât Feel Rightâ
During an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Watt didnât mince words:
âIâve played this game long enough to know when something doesnât feel right. Those calls down the stretch â they werenât just bad. They were controlled. Somebody wanted that outcome.â
Watt cited two specific moments: a questionable roughing-the-passer flag on a critical third down against San Franciscoâs defense, and a non-call on a blatant pass interference that cost the 49ers a potential game-winning drive.
Fans Demand NFL Investigation
The clip of Wattâs comments immediately went viral, racking up over 10 million views within hours on X (formerly Twitter). 49ers fans flooded social media with hashtags like #RiggedGame and #JusticeFor49ers, demanding an official review from the NFL officiating committee.
Even several former players backed Wattâs claims, calling for greater transparency in referee accountability. âIf J.J. Watt is saying this, you better listen,â former quarterback Kurt Warner tweeted.
NFL Yet to Respond
As of Monday morning, the NFL has not issued a formal response to Wattâs comments. However, insiders report that the leagueâs officiating department is internally reviewing the game tape.
The 49ers, meanwhile, have chosen not to comment publicly â but sources inside the locker room describe âdeep frustrationâ over the way the final quarter unfolded.
A Call for Integrity
For Watt, the issue goes beyond one game.
âThis isnât about who won or lost,â he said. âItâs about protecting the integrity of the sport. If fans lose trust in the fairness of the game, we all lose.â
As tensions rise, all eyes are now on the NFL to determine whether this was simply human error â or something far more damaging to the leagueâs reputation.
