"That's a pretty generous spot for the Saints/Bucs/Seahawks/Browns/Lions" "Hmm...it looked like Newton got the 1st but they're not giving it to him"

Last night, whenever there was a play ran by either team that was close to the yellow line, I told my buddy that they would call us short and they would give the first down to the Saints. This happened every single time that it mattered. I'm talking about with 100% accuracy.

Why do we think this is? The reason I was able to predict this was because this has been going on for a while. Look at Eric Reid having 7 "random" drug tests after games this season...are these refs punishing us for signing Reid too?

After the line judge totally botched the Cam first down I think the head ref lost faith in him.  Because when the saints got close to the marker on the next possession he came running up from the backfield to spot it.   Terrible positioning to spot it and if even Witten can see it and comment on it you know it is bad.  I really don't think it was a conspiracy, just incompetence.

And you are confident the xfl is not going to be fixed due to their background in wrestling?

Idc about fix or not in XFL bc the creator came from wrestling, never claimed XFL is going to be less rigged. I would watch for entertainment with nonattachment.

NFL, I have become too attached to, and it is rigged and getting less entertaining besides a few teams like the Bears, Chargers, and maybe one or two more.

That play last night where the Saints rushed the ball and there quarterback lost a yard on 3 and 1 and they just gave them a first down was unbelievable.  Did anyone else notice that?  Even that sorry crew annoucing the game brought it up.  Just fuging awful

Oh yeah...the announcers even said they were surprised Rivera didn’t challenge that

Spots both for and against us this year have been hideously bad... hard to not feel like the league is biased against us at this point when it continues to happen week after week

    • So answer the question. Why did Chark and Hurst have the same metrics (go look them up, I did... and one was actually worse in LA) with Justin Herbert? Why did Mingo have the same metrics with Dak? You're right, there is a common denominator, just not the one you're trying to make.  Why could DJ Moore get open with Bridgewater, Allen, Cam 2.0, Darnold, Baker, Williams, Bagent? I'll answer the question for you - because he is a good WR unlike Chark/Hurst/Mingo. 
    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.
