Without robotic birds and prophetic demons trapped in the bodies of pain intolerant hostages. These ideas will all die on social media

Why are you arguing semantics? What difference does it make?

Man, it was terrible. That was around the time I first started to notice the rigging or influencing or whatever. A person can only see instances like those so many times without thinking something's up....hahaha.

I would say there was a LOT of questionable officiating at the end of that game (all which seemed to work in the Bengals favor) and also the ‘hold’ on the Pringle return that had nothing to do with the play. Yeah, it was technically a hold, but you could call a hold like that literally on every play. The refs usually swallow their whistle their and this time they chose not to and I honestly believe it was because they were trying to keep the game ‘close’ going into the second half. NFL didn’t want a blowout in the first half, which is what it would have been had that TD counted.

So ‘rigged’ ? No. Outcome ‘influenced’ heavily by officials? Most definitely.
Too many of you guys wanna dance around the obvious in spite of the asinine outcomes we all see every single week, scared to be viewed as konspiracy kooks by all the popular kids IMO

No it isn't scripted to the level of WWE, but week after week and year after year we can't ignore our eyes... these refs are able to dominate games with ZERO consequences

No it's not. Influence still gives the one side a chance, but it's an uphill battle. You know, not calling penalties on the favored team vs calling them on the other team. Rigged is straight-out rigged.

And that's where the power in the "subjective" calls ("there's a hold on every play:....) is provided to officials to influence games.

If you pay attention close enough, you can see early on which games they are trying to push a certain direction. Usually it starts with little things like bad spots that are about about a yard off each time and almost always in one team’s favor.

If anyone is naïve enough to think the NFL isn’t influencing some of these games on purpose, they need to have their head examined.

But remember, NFL officials call everything they see, but only see what they want.

Reid mentioned in his presser the Pringle kickoff return TD that was called back due to a penalty. He didn’t say whether or not he thought it was a bad call, but it seemed like he was implying that it was. I didn’t catch the replay on that. Did it look like a bad call or was it fairly obvious holding?

I sometimes think it's because they view it as we score slot we don't need extra scores or great field position to make it worse.

If anything bothers me, it's probably that. For a group of people who publicly stand in judgment of players, it would be nice to know that these crews are being evaluated. I'm sure they are, but for all we know it's nothing more than some folks meeting at Denny's and having a patty melt and shooting the shit about their last flights, hotel stays, and what their grandkids are doing. And that the league won't allow any decent to be voiced about these part time employees.

EDIT: It really feeds the conspiracy theory. And I think the NFL likes that..

Rewatch the game...there's a side judge that spots the ball wrong 3 times and he's responsible for 3 of the flags that are just bad calls....ringer?

see for yourself, replay is in slow motion and they flagged KC #39

eDave, why did we get switched to this officiating crew last minute today?

It was a hold. But the frustrating part was unless he was going to shed his block and catch a 4.4 runner who was already 10 yards in front of him w a full head of steam it had 0 influence on the play.

And yet to see an explanation as to why

I'd be real interested in how you'd care to explain that.
I'm hoping eDave has the answer.
