the NFL is a shit product. Most games are decided by an interpretation of a call late in game. it's rare that refs don't decide games, actually.

i still watch, but the game is shit.

I think what you are trying to say is that the games are rigged, by the league, through the refs.

Players don't have to be involved when a holding or PI call can cancel a score or keep a drive alive.

The whole thing is rigged, has been for a long time.

i doubt they are rigged. but too many games are decided by a referee's interpretation of a rule. too many reviews. it happens in the playoffs, too. it just cheapens the game. close games are almost always decided by a borderline flag.

there's just too much referee involvement in the game, IMO.

Then there’s the guy bitching about the no calls that cost there team. It’s part of the game. Ref are human.

It’s also about 12 minutes of game spread over three and a half hours.
