    The NFL is fixed

    There is no other conclusion after watching that Cheaters-Jets game. A real black eye for the NFL.

    The NFL prefers the term " Choreographed "

      I guess. It's "entertainment" after all and allowed to be scripted.

        It's been that way this entire century.

        No combination of owner/coach/player has dominated any sports league, ever, for as long as Kraft/Belicheck/Brady have the NFL in the 2000's.

          The entire league is owned by Jimmy Hoffa who lives in Cuba

            Belichick distracted the ref so Hightower could hit McCown with the steel chair.

              That was so egregious that even Fouts, the other commentator, and every other network shill "Yes Man" had to call bull**** on that ruling.

                I finally got to see that play & I’m not sure how they found a way to take it away or reverse it.

                    Until his dying day my grandpa swore up and down that the NFL was fixed and always has been since the 70s. By collusion between the NFL and Vegas. It's really ****ing obvious and embarrassing at times such as this.

                      Meh.

                      If the NFL was fixed you'd obviously see success spread out across the markets and no eternal failures, or you'd be alienating consumers. Titles would revolve around the biggest markets.and biggest revenue. I'm not seeing Dallas raking titles in, the Jets, Rams, new LA Chargers should be rolling in wins, more Florida success, etc etc. Cleveland wouldn't keep losing, the old franchise Bears would get their turn, no reason whatever to cater to wee lil Green Bay, and why would the Pats get all that love instead of NYC or LA ?

                      Because it's not.

                        I would bet my life that certain games are fixed every week.

                          It's been fixed in the Cheatriots' favor since the Tuck Rule.

                              yes he did. the problem is the play on the field was called a touchdown.

                              The ref needed full and undeniable proof that the dude not only fumbled, but that he failed to get control of the ball before landing out of bounds. The real problem with this isn't the fumble. he clearly fumbled. the problem is you can't see where he regained control. By taking the ball away from the jets to rule it a touchback the ref gifted the pats. you can't convince me that there was visual proof that the runner failed to recover the ball before going out of bounds.
                              My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.

                              MY WIFE SAID THAT!!!
