lol if KC wins again, i'm done watching this sport.
Pretty much this I'm rooting for the Bills and Lions but think the Ravens got it this year.
The Chiefs are the new Patriots and we all saw how many playoff games the Pats eeked out over some dogshit calls over the years.
Despite people constantly saying it's "impossible" to rig an NFL game idk how many games I saw this year alone where the NFL made the WRONG call and it was blatantly obvious and cost a team the game in a 1 score game.
It's not a conspiracy that when it's the 4th quarter and a team is down 10+ they get 3 flags on their final drive that give them just enough to not lose by too much(thats vegas)
This is why I'll never bet big on NFL playoff games. It's not like the MLB, NHL, and NBA that get a multi-game playoff and if the refs hand a team a win then normally before the series is over they try to give the team they fucked a chance too.
Don't you find it odd how many series go 6-7 games when a team is up 3-0. That's why the NFL's 1 and done makes games so exciting but 1 call can ruin an entire season.
It wasn't until I was much older that I realized that the best scenario financially and for the fans of an organization is to have a long drawn out close series and sell a fuck ton of beer/merchandise/tickets.
Have you ever seen how easy it is for a professional player to "fake" that their dogshit at the sport and then turn it on and eviscerate everyone when they want too.
Not saying every part of the NFL is scripted it's clearly not but in order to maintain viewership the NFL has to create "match-ups" people want to see and make games more high scoring/exciting.
Look how TERRIBLE TNF was every week. If it wasn't free on Twitch half of people wouldn't watch it because most the match ups they "planned" were total dogshit and if it was well planned like "Jets vs Packers" "new team vs old team" Aaron was out all year so that game sucked too.
