The Refs Were Bad In Saints/Chiefs Game

This is the craziest thing I've ever heard. No one is blaming the refs. They have clearly stated that the refs didn't cause us to lose the game. Everyone is simply pointing out that the refs were biased. That is completely true, and it doesn't matter if you're a good team or a bad team. We were a good team a few years ago, and they were still biased against us. We even missed the Super Bowl because of it.

It's all about money. Referees "nudge" games in the direction preferred by the NFL. Good teams can often overcome it. Bad teams cannot. If you think things are bad now, just wait. We're only a couple years into the legal gambling and casino sponsors. As that market continues to grow, the NFL will continue to deteriorate.



Yes and no IMO. I agree that the NFL have their favorite teams/payers and I think referees tend to be scared of calling questionable fouls vs Mahones and Brady. I believe KC has not been called for a offensive holding in the last 3 Super Bowls. How is that even possible!

However, I don’t agree that it’s Vegas that is dictating the officiating. KC, for example, tends to get a lot bets in Vegas, so If they were interested in making that extra $, it would make sense for the Chiefs to lose more games. And obviously that is not happening.
