Every call or non call is subjective in the NFL. I don't watch many games but it is really obvious nowadays. The NFL brings in these ex officials to explain to you why a PI may have been overlooked or why a PI was called. The issue becomes they are never consistent with explanations or even how the game is called.
The NFL may have a problem on their hands if they keep letting the refs influence their desired outcome on games.
On a side note, don't announcers know how to announce a damn game anymore? These ex players are too busy telling you what is going through the mind of the player, when they have no freaking clue what their talking about as flags are thrown only to be surprised as to what the call may be. They consistently don't know what down it is, if the runner made the line to gain, a fumble, int, etc. It's like the rules are so difficult that they have to wait until the refs make the calls to comment it because the announcers have no idea what the calls may be! ?
It's more of a comedy these days. It's so bad!

Jealousy? The best paid entertainers are quarterbacks.
I disagree to a degree. Guys like Gene sterratore (whatever) left the field to get higher paying jobs in the booth/New York. But don’t let it fool you…they 10000% are referring to Gene for calls. Last night he got caught on a hot mic saying “yes it’s a first down” right when they were going to commercial.
They want to call the game correctly. Bill Vinovich is on the sidelines talking to Zach Taylor. I mean there is a lot of input being given and a lot of conversations. Plus the head ref of the KC game was Ron Tobert, who reffed the Super Bowl just last year.
I actually did a year of referee training 5 or so years ago to get a different perspective. Changed my entire viewpoint. I think they are trying to get the calls right as much as possible. I don’t think they care who wins, but they do care about ratings and drama and entertainment to put players in situations to have to really step up. But of course back in the day like in the NBA, it was very questionable. But they had veteran refs to pull that stuff off.
So if cinnci took the ball and scored when they made a stop and reed punted would the so called “fix” be relevant . Despite all the shit calls which happens in almost every game why bet it if you’re convinced it’s rigged? My 401k must be rigged have you looked at yours lately oh wait that would require having money. The Super Bowl is also gonna be rigged there’s 2 black quarterbacks must Be a conspiracy theorist wet dream . Holy shit it’s like going to boot camp and starting with 100 and graduating with 50. All you fuckers were azmoded out and ended up here . It’s making sense this place is a sci fi altered universe with a collective ending go figure.
the phantom extra third down call was the signal to the rest of the officiating crew........"comon boys.......we're giving this one to the Chiefs".......by the way .....why isn't there a big stink over that name......KC Chiefs......Fla St Seminoles......Utah Utes....Dallas Cowboys.....New England Patriots.....change all these godamn names........if I can't have Ft Bragg.....then you can't have KC Chiefs
