Let's just say the Chjefs have received very favorable officiating since Taylor Swift started dating Kelce
Goodell Loves Taylor Swift and all the extra revenue and interest she's brought to the league

According to this tweet, he was inches short on 3rd down coupled with a terrible spot on 4th
Remember when the Refs said Harry was out of bounds and he wasn't?
Yeah. That's when I realized shit was going downhill.
Yeah. That's when I realized shit was going downhill.
They botched the spot on 3rd down. I agree. But I don’t think they made the line to gain on 4th down. That’s on Buffalo.
Enough to jeopardize the league to fix games? Do you think the owners (his boss) are complicit in this, or is Goodell just going rogue?

I mentioned that earlier in post #844
Kincaid HAD the first down on the 3rd and 3 play before his knee touched the ground, and the ref moved the ball back
People who say reffing doesn't play a big part in winning or losing aren't paying attention

I’m asking you. Do you think the other owners of NFL teams would be complicit in this? Including Houston.
Just wanna make sure I’m following the logic here….. The NFL had a vendetta against NE because they didn’t like the Patriots winning all the time, but they WANT KC to win all the time because of Taylor Swift and because they still are bitter about the Patriot dynasty.
Do I have that right?

There would be way too many moving parts and loose lips to get away with legitimately rigging the NFL, but the Chiefs have gotten absolutely every break imaginable since 2019 and it's pretty questionable
That I can agree with 100%.
I think it’s incredibly disrespectful to what KC has accomplished by trying to diminish their achievements by insinuating that the fix is in. Just like the people who diminished NE’s accomplishments by insinuating that they were cheaters.

I've read some interesting books over the years that talked about "manipulation" in sports, and it's never about vendetta's or revenge
Manipulation of any game or sport usually comes down to one thing, and one thing only. "Money"
So how is the NFL making more money, other than a few more Travis Kelce Jersey sales? Honest question..
They’re already locked in on their major TV contracts until 2033.

That wasn't the first time in the game, that happened to The Bills, they were marked short a couple of times before that, when they should have been given a first down.

I will not be watching. I can't root for either of these teams even though I want KC to lose.

I don't think I'm going to watch. I absolutely don't care about what game-altering ref f*** up gives Kansas City the win
I mentioned it as well live.
The "human error" has far more impact than it should in these sports where billions are now profited and gambled. Adds a lot of skepticism to the integrity seeing as the NFL always aligns with this Mahomes era.
$$$
Find technology to determine spot of ball.
What way to make more $$ than to sell an even "better" dynasty than the last one?
The logic is there for the people with the authority.

Great teams tend to get extra calls, that's absolutely true. Refs always give stars and great teams the benefit of the doubt. They also tend to play more important games at home than ont he road, and on the whole "home field advantage" is just refs intimidated by their environment.
But after watching Rob Gronkowski get reffed differently than every other player in the league for years, in ways that absolutely cost the Patriots wins sometimes, this is pretty funny to see.
Can anyone remember a single bad, game-altering call going against the Chiefs? Every major f*** up goes their way. Obvious replays don't get overturned when it hurts them. Refs put away their whistles for Kansas City them while the Chiefs get ticky tack calls all the time.
It sucks to watch. It's boring as shit.

Exactly.
Change some names, and this place sounds like a bunch of Colts fans from 20 years ago.

What are you guys even talking about? No one is denying the Pats ever got calls. I literally just said every great team/player does.
