If they wanted week 18 games to matter, they've succeeded. KC won't rest their starters in case TEN stumbles. Raiders/Chargers is for a wild card spot. Dallas at Philly matters somehow to someone. Rams will beat the 9ers. GB beats DET. |
I don’t think the winners are necessarily chosen in advance, but I can absolutely see why the league would have a vested interest in preventing blowouts and keeping these games close.

We stuffed them 4 straight plays from the 1. What did we get for our effort? A flag to offset their own flag and the no call false start. We were not allowed to win. 6 of thier drives were kept going from flags.

The good news is that, obviously, whomever NFL corporate and their Vegas masters wants to win, will win. For post-season/SB ratings that has to give Mahomes the advantage.
This whole season was about cashing in on "unlikely" losses, keeping most teams within a game of each other...and last second wins. The really rubbed in the fact of how stupid they think the average NFL fan is... They always sold how "parity" is great for the NFL...no...manufactured parity is a great cover story for massaging point spreads and ratings. I do give the NFL props for creating their own propaganda network...then filling it with apologists. Announcers are straight up told not to questions the officiating too deeply... This has been the worst NFL season of my lifetime...I cant take any of it serious. I enjoy the entertainment of watching KC...but really was only mad for about 30 seconds....and that anger was more about how disinterested I am with this new Vegas-NFL partnership....which is not "new"...but it being brazenly out in the open is. I was curious how this was going to play out...and now have my answer. |

I think it was 2 years ago but it was obvious the NFL sent memos to all the networks that have their games to stop shit talking officiating.
Because all those channels did a 180 on the way they covered stuff. |
Remember the Raiders game like 6 years ago where they had about 10 tries from inside the 5 to win due to flags?
Yeah this game felt like that |
