‘Worst 11-1’ trends on Twitter after controversial penalty leads to Chiefs win vs. Raiders

Football fans made the term ‘Worst 11-1’ trend on Twitter after a controversial penalty helped the #Chiefs beat the #Raiders in Week 13.

The Kansas City Chiefs became the first team in the NFL to clinch a playoff berth after defeating the Las Vegas Raiders 19-17 on Black Friday.

However, a controversial penalty at the end of the game left a bad taste in the mouths of Raiders fans, who won’t be keen to congratulate the Chiefs on their impressive accomplishment.

Friday’s AFC West matchup was decided by an illegal shift penalty against the Raiders that occurred just before Las Vegas got a chance to kick a game-winning field goal in the final seconds of the fourth quarter.

After what was arguably one of Kansas City’s worst performances this season, Raiders fans were less than pleased that Las Vegas had bungled its comeback attempt. The Raiders faithful were so incensed about the loss that they got the term ‘Worst 11-1’ to trend on Twitter.
