But that's the problem. One moment it's a penalty, one moment it's not. We want CONSISTENCY. If you're gonna call it right there, then call it ALL GAME and ALL SEASON. If you aren't going to call it early game, then don't call that weak ass sh*t in the biggest moment of the game.

Technically you could call a penalty on almost any play...so they chose that one. fug the Eagles and their fans.

In the Chiefs defense though, that RT from Philly was kicking back early almost every play. Almost worse than Jake Matthews in the ATL game this year.

So… the rules change from week one to the last 2 min of the game,,, I did not know that 

What does week 1 have to do with the final two minutes of the Super Bowl?

[amcoolio]

Two former panthers decided the game and a former panther called it and mentioned us at the game winning kick

Orchestrated rigging doesn't happen but the refs absolutely interfere unnecessarily in big games it's always happened they are as biased as any other human being.

Believe what you want to believe, it is your right. However, don’t tell people they are wrong bc you want to believe in conspiracies and the rest don’t.

NBA games end on fouls… literally happened two nights ago, haha. Teams would foul on the last play intentionally if the refs thought like that….

 

Lebron James face of the NBA no foul was called despite being fouled. You don't make those calls in late game situations.

The defenses were complete no shows in this game. I’m more disappointed in the Eagles squad. They did next to nothing.

When Super Bowl XI ended (Raiders over the Vikings), as the Raiders lifted John Madden on their shoulders, Curt Gowdy said "that's the toughest job they have had to do all day."

Yeah, but a foul is a lot more distinct than what is and isn't holding, illegal contact, a catch, etc.  So much of the issue with officiating in the NFL is its so fuging subjective and it gives the refs way too much power.  The only call I can think in basketball that is close to all of the iffy/subjective stuff used to control the game in the NFL would be a charge in basketball - it's very subjective and up for interpretation.  But common fouls?  Like what happened to LeBron at the end of their game against the Celtics a few nights ago?  That's clear, by the letter of the law, a foul.  

The way the NFL officiates?  One play its a penalty, the next it isn't.  For one team it is, for the other it isn't.  And again, I don't like Philly and I especially don't like their fans, so fug them, but the officiating is bullshit every year.

It isn't a conspiracy to acknowledge refs have and play favorites. To believe otherwise is akin to fantasy. They have bias too.

Some calls you just don't make! This is for every sport no matter how big the star is. You don't end games because of a Zebra making a call.

 

 

Nobody here cares about Lebron's whiny ass.

The bigger story here is how the Eagles D did NOTHING tonight. NOTHING. They're crying for Gannon to be fired over on Eagles boards.

It’s not outright rigging but the nfl takes advantage of situations and the refs made a bullshit call that tainted the ending of a great game. It also keeps people engaged on platforms debating the game. It’s annoying but this is just entertainment. 

so if you want to win it all you need to draft a very talented qb and also have him be a media darling that the nfl loves.
