The NFL is Rigged

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how would you tell the difference between outdated old men genuinely doing a shitty job and ‘conspiring/meeting together ‘rigging’ the game with zero proof?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

    • Love the Freeling pick even more after watching his pressers. Dude is sharp and definitely seems to have the right mentality. I loved hearing how personal he took having a bad game with a torn labrum and instead of seeing that as the reason for his bad game and not changing anything, it motivated him to work even harder. Such a great pick, we finally got our all pro level LT for the next decade and now we can move Ickey to RT or guard with no hurt feelings due to his injury. Second favorite pick is probably Brazzell. He said he false started on his 40 and it cost him probably 0.04 seconds, so he’s more of a 4.33 guy rather than 4.37. Really Randy Moss lite. I didn’t know anything about him prior to drafting him and first highlight reel I saw of him I immediately thought he looked like Moss. Then I saw the measurables and was like yep. Then I see that he’s drawn that comparison by many scouts and analysts. If he can add consistency and play to the level of his highlights every play then we got an incredible value.
    • During his three years at UGA he only allowed 5 sacks. He is only 21 and is on an upward trajectory. He's a great athlete that was good basketball player in high-school.  His height (76% how is this only 76%???? these guys are giants now), hands (81%), span (99%), speed (96%), quickness (10 yd. 86%), and explosiveness (vert. 96%, broad 97%) are all outstanding.  When we took Freeling, Fano, Mauioga, Proctor, and Miller were all off the board so we could have drafted Iheanachor or Lomu instead or waited to the second or third round to take Bell, Tiernan or Barber or wait even longer.  A lot of these tackles (including the first two taken) project to right tackle or guard in the NFL and that's not what we needed now.  Freeling has some sloppiness to clean up in his run blocking, but he's young and getting better.  We can let him get experience behind Walker and Moton knowing if he has to replace one of the two this year, his pass blocking won't get Bryce killed. Icky's not coming back from that injury as a nfl starting left tackle and Moton is in the twilight of his career.  If Walker has a great year, we will have to pay him a lot and if he is medicore we would want to let him walk.  Getting a LT on a rookie contract is going to help a lot with the cap.    
    • It was cool but they have done this at least in recent years unless I am imagining it
