NFL rigged Seahawks vs niners?

[Tailback U]

I don't personally care for shit like this because the niners deserved to lose but this is gaining more popularity than I thought it would.

How are you guys embedding vids? Used to just have to post the YouTube link.

I only watched about 5 mins of the vid but there's no denying that the refs made some terrible calls in that game.

I thought it was a poorly officiated game, and not only was it poorly officiated but it mostly one sided. I would never rule out match fixing - it happens, though it is usually orchestrated by organized gangs who influence individual players - but I can't accuse the NFL of match fixing based on this "evidence". I don't think there is anything suspicious about a referee getting one of these contact to head penalties wrong for example, given the speed of the game, grey area in the rules, and often obscured view.

Also, if the NFL was fixing matches there would probably be more than a couple of people who knew. And funnily enough when you know the result you become quite confident betting on it. There is usually a money trail and bookmakers know how to detect it.

home field advantage will forever and always get you a few calls. As to how extreme that is ,is debatable.

Watched the first two highlights then stopped.

That hit does look like Helmet to helmet at first, but we needed replay to see otherwise.

Then the RB was short of the goal line as his arm came down and the ball hadn't broken the goal line.
