Is the NFL Rigged?

Eric Mangini

Wouldn't the NFL just of payed him off to keep his mouth shut or better yet I am sure a major news network would offer Mangini more for one interview then he would ever make in his whole career with the NFL to speak out and show the NFL is the biggest fraud ever, right?

The basis of your argument is pretty much that foul play is the catalyst of:

A. Upsets

B. Teams overcoming adversity

C. Teams overcoming slow starts to get hot at the end of the season

Also Lance Moore's two point conversion was legit. We saw it earlier this year against Atlanta with Rosario: possession + ball over goal line = touchdown. I knew a bunch of morons would be up in arms over that call.

Stop posting.

Edit: Oh yeah NFL refs also didn't "make up" the tuck rule. The Patriots actually were on the wrong end of that rule earlier in that same season against the Jets when they lost what would have been a sack/fumble under almost identical cirucmstances. It's been used before, that game just made it notorious to casual fans of the NFL who don't know much (you).

I knew a guy who was convinced that the Panthers threw the 2005 opener for the Saints. To kickstart their marvelous 3-13 season no doubt.

I watched that game, and after it was over, I just turned it off and laughed. I knew it was rigged shorty after the coin toss.

    • Incorrect, I have watched us consistently over quite a number of years. When I say Cam relied on athleticism, I simply mean his dual threat style and athleticism overshadowed the deficiencies in the passing game (his own or those created by the system).  Now I wouldn’t disagree that our OCs over that time were not amazing and arguably held him back, but correct me if I’m wrong, Cam had a habit of locking onto his receivers and overthrowing them. Gettleman even drafted two big receivers - Kelvin Benjamin and Devin Funchess - to give Cam receivers with a big catch radius.  Again, correct me if I’m wrong, but Cam had some mechanical issues. For example, the reliance on arm strength over touch and his footwork often led to him throwing off the back foot. There were many debates on these boards about his mechanics, with far more knowledgeable posters than I braking down what he needed to improve on. End of the day, I was as big a Cam fan as the next person, but he did have his shortcomings as a passer. Had he played under someone like Sean McVay or a similar offensive guru, with a high quality QB coach, then I’m sure they would have ironed out the kinks and he would have been far more dangerous and successful than he was. And that’s a scary thought of what he could have been under the likes of a McVay! 
    • It's true that we are not scoring at a much higher clip than the Saints. They're averaging ~18.4 with Shough and in that same span we're averaging ~19, so pretty close, despite Bryce having better TD numbers over that period. Both our teams are a far, far cry from the NFL average of 23.3...
    • I like when this big kat is going crazy panther fan and not the pat jersey betting against persona.
