b - instead of Chiefs having the one seed locked up and resting starters for a week before their bye, which would see PMII on the sidelines for one week and watching at home the next, the league put their most marketable star in play for (possibly) the next 5 games.

They're not stupid. They did THAT on purpose.

2. By not allowing Cincy to score with 2 min left, they basically made sure Mahomes never touched the ball again. Cincy's FG made sure the spread was covered. They couldn't afford to have Mahomes even complete one pass to put KC in line to tie or win. Also...they couldn't allow Cincy to score a TD. It had to be a FG.

Vegas won BIG.
Please never watch another game and stop posting.

One seed wouldn't have been locked up if the Chiefs had won. They would still have to win next week so wouldn't have rested starters anyhow.

Only if you get a bottle of HEET antifreeze and drink it really fast.

If you do that, I promise that I'll stop watching and never post again.

Deal?

No calls are one thing

Bogus calls and multiple numbers of them in one game?

Like in the last SB and yesterday?

Totally different

Okay, but they'd pull their starters as soon as the inevitable 30-3 third quarter score showed up.

What's next, the NFL providing details of how (or if) they evaluate the jobs their part-timer officiating crews did the previous week?

No, the NFL is never going to do that. Never.

The NFL is simply never going to be transparent and open itself up to even more criticism. Their play is to insist that just because it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like duck, goes to duck school and has duck friends doesn't mean it's a duck. And they aren't going to show you its birth certificate or let you talk to the doctors who birthed it. So you're just going to have to accept their claim that it's a tuna fish...

Why is every defensive penalty an automatic first down?

It can be 3rd and 30 but a 5 yard holding penalty results in an automatic first down? Ridiculous.

Get these stupid bailout penalties out of the game.

What the heck are you talking about?

First, as has already been mentioned, we would not have locked up the 1 seed since the Titans won. We still would need to play our starters against the Donkeys.

Secondly, the Bengals were +4.5 underdogs. I'm not sure what you mean by covering the spread.

The WWFL wants scoring, so rules are created to do whatever rules can to to help teams score.

And you know I'm right..

Why is a DPI a spot violation, but an OPI isn't the equivalent yardage backwards?

Why are push-offs labeled "it's just hand fighting"?

Why aren't stiff-arms (often on the facemask) labeled "blows to the head and neck area?

Why can a RB, or anybody with the ball, able to lead with the crown of their helmet?

It's all to promote scoring.

Don't get me started on why I think the NFL's defenses should break off into their own union. It's 100% possible, and sure would be interesting.

You can't even see how unhinged you are.

Rabs, let me know when you've reached the point when you just accept this stuff and move on.

I know they got the nudge. It happens. I'm not going to say I can predict shit, or figure out why they do it for certain teams and certain times.

When it happens, it happens. Turn it off or watch, shrug your shoulders and move on. You will be happier.
