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.

Hi Tom. I dont like your name. I don't like Toms. So I feel no remorse for grammar correcting you here:

Its per se, not per say.

“The games are predetermined by referees and the NFL, but that doesn’t stop me from bitching about the coaches making stupid calls or players making mistakes. I also religiously follow Chiefs news in the off-season and never miss the NFL draft. But, yeah, it’s all rigged and if you think otherwise you’re a real sucker.”

If you truly believe his you must be a big WWE fan.

If you truly believe this I commend you for somehow finding enjoyment in something you believe to be rigged. I could never do that. When I watch spider man I know it’s fake and the producers tell us it’s fake. I wouldn’t do that with a sport that claims not to be rigged.

That’s my thought lol. You said it much better than I. If they truly believe this is a rigged sport, how they waste their time watching it and the invested time they put into it is beyond me.

Okay, so we'll use the word "manipulated" to make you feel better.

Totally semantics, but whatever.

Get out here w rigged bs. Chiefs had plenty of opportunities to win the game and they blew it every single time.

No.

We are explaining to you that the refs were swapped for a reason.

Quit being the NFL's lapdog.

Oh, here comes one of the most astute brains on the board to subjectively weigh in...

Okay (?)

I am not wanting to argue semantics. I don’t think the outcome is predetermined or that the NFL instructs refs to do what they can to make sure certain teams win. I think they get involved when blowouts between high profile teams appear eminent.

In the ONLY UNSCHEDULED referee substitution at all this season, to boot?

Somebody needs to believe...NFL corporate loves you.

Bengals had 6 first downs by penalty...Chiefs had zero.

Chiefs were penalized for a false start by Burrow. Bengals committed a false start, had the Chiefs pointing at them...and the refs ignored it on a third and inches on the goal line.

Chiefs got a DPI on a play where no DPI happened...on third down. That is a punt that never happened...on a drive that put up points.

The refs went completely ape-shit lopsided in the 4th quarter....ignoring one teams fouls and inventing them for the other.

Dont forget the 3rd and two conversion that got called back for holding and killed KC's drive around midfield...ticky-tack 3rd down holding calls are the NFL's trick for controlling outcomes.

Look at WHEN these penalties were called/not called....all on third down.

We've already established that often, the results of the contest aren't predetermined :

Titans/Chiefs in the FORWARD PROGRESS game is a great example - the Chiefs were SCREAMING toward a beatdown of TEN. Triplett drops the FP bomb, TEN comes back (in a manner just like the Bungholes today), the game gets tied...and the NFL has a close game on national TV in the playoffs. Doesn't matter which asshole team kicks the FG at the end, because the winner of that game was scheduled to get jobbed by NE. Which TEN promptly did. And JAX got jobbed in the AFCCG- Myles Jacks had either an INT or fumble recovery...but the NFL loves them some Tom Brady.

Sometimes, it's for TV/entertainment purposes. Sometimes its for the storyline. And sometimes, the oddest shit will happen at the end of a game and the team covers the spread. AMAZING.

Why even follow the Chiefs then, if it's all predetermined?

For instance, today…big time game. A blowout looked to be on the horizon. Then Pringle’s return was called back. On a play that happens all the time. I don’t think that’s coincidence.

A few years ago we were about to destroy Houston. This was when they were trying to hype up the Mahomes/Watson thing. We were getting ready to go up 17 or something when a PI call against Houston was mysteriously erased by a call from “upstairs.” The call was made, marked off, then changed by the hand of God with no explanation. Next thing I know we turn the ball over and Houston is right back in it.

Where was the eye in the sky to fix some of the BS calls today - like the Sneed DPI? The league can have gigantic influence over games by selectively applying that thing.

Don't remember you making these conspiracy posts after Chiefs won the SB. Can't have it both ways guy
