Cardi B kept the receipts.

The superstar rapper fired back at the “NFL Live” crew for unanimously selecting Houston to top boyfriend Stefon Diggs and the Patriots in Sunday’s divisional round clash – picks that backfired after New England’s 28-16 triumph.

“What are y’all talking about?! Nothing! Nothing!” Cardi yelled in a video shared Sunday on X in response to a Jan. 16 “SportsCenter” post, which conveyed the cast leaning toward the Texans.

 

 

 

It was a sloppy affair in Foxborough Sunday as Houston quarterback C.J. Stroud turned the ball over four times in the first half amid wintry conditions.

Meanwhile, Patriots quarterback Drake Maye managed to throw three touchdowns, but tossed an interception and fumbled four times.

 

 

 

New England capitalized on Houston miscues to advance to the AFC title game for the first time in seven years. It will visit the Broncos next Sunday with a chance to punch their ticket to the Super Bowl

“THEY DIDN’T BELIEVE IN US !!! I LIKE US!!!!! WE ALL WE GOT!!!!! WE ALL WE NEED !!!!” Cardi wrote in Sunday’s post, along with the hashtag, “Pats Nation.”

Patriots Nation has embraced Cardi, 33, this season, as well as Diggs, 32, who is in his first year with the team. The four-time Pro Bowler — who previously played for the Vikings, Texans and rival Bills — agreed to a three-year deal with the Patriots in free agency.

Diggs had four receptions for 40 yards and a touchdown against the Texans, with a fired-up Cardi posting about the All-Pro wideout in an Instagram Story.

First linked last February, Cardi and Diggs made their romance Instagram official in June. They welcomed a baby boy in November.

Diggs’ first season with the Patriots hasn’t been without controversy.

 

 

 

He has been accused of slapping and choking his personal chef during a December dispute over money.

Earlier this month, Diggs was granted a postponement of his arraignment for the alleged assault to Feb. 13.

Diggs denied the claims through his attorney.
