If you're not a fan of NFL officiating and the constant interference by the referees on a game-in, game-out reference, then you're going to love this clip. During the closing minutes of the AFC Title Game, the Kansas City Chiefs punted the ball to the Tennessee Titans. With the Chiefs trying to down the ball ahead of the end zone, an on-field official got in the way, and a player absolutely leveled him.

That ref's focus was obviously on something else, but what could have prevented him from hearing the oncoming stampede?

Give that official credit though, he took that hit like a champ.
