Either the NFL refs are all masters of deception, the NFL itself doesn't care, or it's by design (for whatever reason you prefer). Can you give me an example of a single MLB umpire that has been caught doing this? How about the NHL? Nope. Don't give me Tim Peel. He just got caught saying out loud what happens in every single game. The only example you have is Tim Donaghy from the NBA. Yep, he had a gambling problem. Still, one individual couldn't account for what happened last night. A total breakdown of an officiating crew. These guys screwed up separately all damn night. The look of the Referees face several times was "what in the hell is going on?" They imploded like Eli Apple after getting burned for a touchdown. Even a single corrupt official does not indict the entire system. Damn near every crook that gets caught starts saying "everyone does it!" No, they don't.

Hey, whatever you want to tell yourself. I assume we both watched that game? If you think it was officiated properly then IDK, cool I guess. Certainly don't have the energy to keep arguing about it.

TigerJ@w Posted January 30, 2023 Report Share Posted January 30, 2023 3 hours ago, UncleEarl said: Bias I understand. That can't really be helped. That is not the NFL trying to influence games. Do you realize how much money a whistleblower could make by ratting out the NFL? If a retired ref wanted to write a book, call TMZ, contact the Justice department, etc. they would make a shitload of money. Why don't they? The logical answer is because the refs don't consciously influence games, especially under direction of the NFL. That house of cards wouldn't last. One of the reasons crime syndicates come and go is because people see how much money is being made from their efforts, get pissed about how little they get, and either squeal or challenge the syndicate. They can't challenge the NFL. If there was deliberate influencing from officials that stuff would be in the news in no time. you are one naive and gullible person, see our government. to each his and her own. i know, it is only a conspiracy theory because you know, everyone is on the up and up. got it.

|westside bengal| Posted January 30, 2023 Report Share Posted January 30, 2023 I have noticed some betting analysis sites actually give stats on who the official referee crew is going to be and the calls they make including the teams record with that crew.

Homer_Rice Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 I have a radical theory about why the Bengals lost last night. It explains everything very simply.

Nope, they just didn't play well enough. Definitely no coping going on there. I literally just posted.a video that Pat Macaphee went in hard about how bad the refs were. And have said how I think it needs to be a full time job to fix some of these problems. I also agree with ever word he says in his video about it being "fixed" Horrible officiating is a far cry from some of the accusation that are being thrown around though. And they are accusation that had we won nobody would be saying and we all know that. And I really don't have to go back but to before the Buffalo game was even played and you were setting all this NFL wants them to win stuff up too, to show that. But maybe of I post some meme face and call everyone who thinks otherwise naive I'll convince people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
