Well, it was obvious.  The NFL goes with the best/most interest-drumming storylines.  And the way they influence games is by neutering one team early to where they become more passive and fall behind.  When you let one team play with maximum physicality and tell the other they can't, it makes for a dramatically different game, and one in which the team that isn't favored falls behind and and has little hope of getting back in it.  

It was really sad to see how this game played out tonight, but the NFL had their yes men do what they wanted done early, and that was enough.  The NFL is a crooked, disgusting, absolute poo organization.

Roger Goodell has been the worst commissioner in the history of sports.

Yup.  Absolute piece of poo.  

The emphasis on image rather than it being about the game has resulted in a complete undercutting of any credibility the league ever had.  From the destruction of the Spygate tapes, the handling of the Ray Rice situation, the blatantly bad officiating in big games, and all the other garbage that has shown Goodell has no moral compass and cares only about the bottom line, it just makes it hard to enjoy many games of consequence anymore.

The 2 games have a lot of similarities. One team getting the brunt of favorable calls but at the same time, their defense just completely manhandling the opposing team to the point it's not clear if it would've mattered. Panthers game would've been a lot more competitive than this at least.

We were considerably more competitive.

It really did feel this way in the 1st half. KC isn't a team that gets shook being behind. They know they can comeback. They were frustrated because they weren't being allowed to compete.

      He should've been more than a JAG, but Jeremy Chinn.  I was convinced he was our next defensive star

      Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
