Throughout the entire NFL regular season and through three games in the playoffs, critics of Taylor Swift have been losing their minds with how many times the broadcast will show her doing anything, especially when Travis Kelce makes a play or scores a touchdown.
The anger towards her has never been warranted since she is not telling these broadcasts to put her on television.
After showing up to Arrowhead Stadium for the wild card game and Highmark Stadium for the divisional game, Swift was at M&T Bank Stadium this past weekend for the AFC Championship NFL game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens.
One Reddit user, JPAnalyst, took the time to calculate with a stopwatch how much time she was actually shown and it just might stun her critics.
CBS only showed Taylor Swift for 44 seconds.

She was on TV for 0.39% of Sunday's game and wasn't on it for 99.61% of the time.

The game between the Ravens and Chiefs was timed at three hours and nine minutes. If somebody is complaining about Swift, they truly just do not like the woman for whatever strange reason.
The game aired on CBS and they made sure to show her as much as they could without upsetting fans. Swift wasn’t a fan as she was on the live broadcast and mouthed, “Go away, please!”
The pop star already knows that her being shown is upsetting fans as she commented on that earlier in the regular season, but she is there to cheer on the Chief, she can’t control outside factors.
Swift had a lot to be excited about during the game as Travis Kelce made history and broke some records. The tight end broke Jerry Rice’s record after Kelce scored the game’s first touchdown for 152 catches in the NFL postseason.
