serious question

how would you tell the difference between outdated old men genuinely doing a shitty job and ‘conspiring/meeting together ‘rigging’ the game with zero proof?

all fans think then and their team is special and if luck doesn’t go their way things are rigged. It’s not unique 

in reality, the concept of primarily old men running around trying to spot things, in a day an age where we have laser and computer chips, is more likely and logically the culprit

That seems convenient. Just sayin'.

If its incompetence it would be more 50/50 you would assume.   Not clearly all calls going to one team.

If the NFL was rigged, Steelers and Cowboys wouldn't have the Super Bowl drought that they do.  They are the two most popular franchises and would get the highest ratings.  

You can only do so much to overcome the Cowboys' choking. When you have Dak spraying the ball around like a kid at the carnival, what can you really do?

I mean, the Steelers do have six rings.

The Cowboys SB is during the season.

They are the most talked about team in the NFL. That's gets the NFL all the ratings they need. They can live without them in the SB.

Lols the two teams with some of the highest number Superbowl rings.

They gave their cash cows the glory first. Now it's time to build the brang bigger. More billions and trillions to go around.

Uh, ok.  They can live without Mahomes, Burrow, Hurts, Brady etc...  They make money hand over fist regardless.  But a cowboys eagles NFC championship game followed by a steelers cowgals SB would be a ratings bonanza.  That is what they would want if they were going to rig things.

I don’t think the NFL is rigged per se but they sure as hell have favorites, situations, and match ups they prefer.

I fully believe that Super Bowl 50 was swayed in a way that would not let Manning go 1-3 in super bowls.

If you need to test your anger management just go back and watch that game.  I did recently and it is sickening

      Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
