Chiefs' Drue Tranquill taunts Dave Portnoy after Bills' AFC Championship loss: 'Should have taken your $1M from #TrumpCoin and taken a nice vacation'

Chiefs linebacker Drue Tranquill taunted Barstool founder Dave Portnoy after he complained about the NFL being rigged en route to losing his $1 million
Chiefs linebacker Drue Tranquill couldn't help but take a shot at Barstool founder Dave Portnoy after he complained about the NFL being rigged en route to losing his $1 million bet on the Bills to win the Super Bowl.
Tranquill's Chiefs ousted the Bills, 32-29, in the AFC Championship game Sunday that featured a controversial fourth-down call that went the Chiefs way when Josh Allen was ruled to have not rushed for one yard, which sent Portnoy into an online meltdown.
"Should have taken your $1M from #TrumpCoin and taken a nice vacation," Tranquill tweeted. "He didn’t get it & you know it. #GoChiefs.”

Portnoy, a noted Patriots fan, announced last week he had profited 200 percent on his Trump Coin and then sold it for a “quick milly,” which he then placed on the Bills to win the Super Bowl at +550 odds.
Said bet would have netted $5.5 million in profit.
The Bills entered Sunday’s game as 1.5-point underdogs but led 22-21 in the fourth quarter when one pivotal play changed the entire complexion of the game.
Facing a fourth-and-1 at the Chiefs’ 41-yard line with roughly 13 minutes left, Allen attempted to sneak for a first down only to be ruled short by the referees.
Bills coach Sean McDermott, CBS commentator Tony Romo and rules analyst Gene Steratore and, as you can guess, Portnoy all believed Allen had gained the yard.
Portnoy unleashed on the referees spanning several X posts.
“I’m quitting watching football. There is no other way to teach @nflcommish a lesson,” Portnoy posted. “This is blatant cheating. #nflrigged.”
He also wrote: “Again how the hell is the ref staring at Josh Allen’s back the one who over rules the ref staring at the ball and who had the right spot? #BillsMafia #nflrigged.”

Tranquill had different thoughts after being one of the Chiefs’ 11 men who stopped Allen, with the veteran seemingly hitting the quarterback late to drive him backwards.
He immediately went to the referee and started voicing what we would guess was his opinion on whether Allen reached the marker and then followed the ball to see where it would be spotted.
He and Chamarri Conner paced the Chiefs with nine tackles, including three solo.
Tranquill aims to win his second straight Super Bowl when the Chiefs battle the Eagles on Feb. 9.
“Shoutout to the @BuffaloBills .. heck of a battle,” Tranquill posted. ‘The rest of y’all can take all that “ref” talk & kick rocks. We stand on business‼️”
