Chiefs Will KC get honest officiating if Oakland loses on Saturday? - Page 5

BlackOp · 12-19-2016, 11:18 PM

There is a lot at stake for the NFL..and it's bid to manufacture a winner if Luck keeps his hot hand.

Chiefs game will be played on Sunday...the day after. If KC wins, they regain the #2 seed. Denver loses and the week #17 (vs. Raiders) game becomes less profitable.

If both Oakland and KC lose...its a win for the advertisers. Donkos stay relevant for another week.

Every scenario is a bad situation for The Chiefs. Unfortunately...in the era where profit trumps fair play...this is a legitimate concern.

The whole world saw the depths they will go for the Raiders in Mexico...

No it didn't. The Ravens were up 28-6 and had just taken the opening kickoff of the second half to the house before the power went out. The Niners outscored the Ravens 25-13 after the power outage.

That "conspiracy" makes no sense. The Niners backed into that Super Bowl because the refs didn't call their blatant holding on Roddy White. They then got plenty of beneficial treatment from the refs in the Super Bowl itself. For instance, David Akers flopped his way into a redo after shanking a field goal during the Niners' post-power-outage comeback. I seem to recall a blatant late hit out of bounds on Flacco down the stretch of the game that went uncalled too, as well as plenty of uncalled grabbing and holding against Torrey Smith. Man, the NFL must really suck at rigging games.

According to the you tube nutter videos the Colts are guaranteed to win SB 51 against the Giants in a 1958 NFL rematch of the Unitas/Ameche game.

That would be great as I bet on the Colts to win it all back in March.

I think the Giants were 9-7 SB winners, still on the table for Indy
A win v Oak and this could get interesting

Just asking because three days later Phil Simms in the Thanksgiving game said "well Jim everyone knows it's where the ball is,not the players body."

The Oakland Houston game was a disgrace but I still see it as just horrible officiating. Hell, if O'Brien wasn't a moron and challenged that 3rd down I believe it gets overturned easily. But the fool he is he waited for the 4th down to challenge. He challenges that third down and the game probably plays out differently.

I am to the point that I just expect kc to get screwed by refs . Doesn't even piss me off anymore because I see it so much. Hali, Houston Ford etc get held so much it's hard to watch sometimes.

This. They need to make refs a full time job, and make them spend a lot more time training.

No, it isn't. Conspiracies on the level you claim are complicated. And hard to keep secret, because they need a lot of people in the know. It is far from the simplest choice.

A multibillion $ industry doesn't make some of their most important employees full time. They shouldn't moon light.

Full time refs changes absolutely nothing. All discrepancies are still handled internally, away from the media...and there is no threat of legal recourse. NFL can do what ever it wants, when ever it wants....they report to no one. The refs have to sign a gag order before accepting the job...they cant talk about anything that happens. Sounds legit...what could they possibly be exposed to for the NFL to threaten them for talking? They are f@cking referees...not tobacco scientists.

So? That is in no way evidence of rigging. You are taking 1+1 and making it into 5. Speculation masquerading as truth, suppositions based on your pre-conceived notions. Taking a little and filling in the blanks with your own fantasy is all you have.

And you're blindly trusting a mutli-billion dollar, profit-driven industry with strong ties to the mob, created for the sole reason of skirting gambling laws...forcing gag orders on their referees.

I guess the Houston game wasn't enough for you...must be nice, believing.
