  1. I'd want McDermott fired IF we sat him in this scenario.
  2. As almost every big 3 sports owner is. $$$.
  3. It wouldn't shock me if the owners were aware. Not an outright "this is the superbowl winner and playoff teams" fix. But I like the points made by @The Red King and @OrangeBills made earlier in here. I'm open to the idea that beliefs and truths are not always as they seem - and pro sports are not immune to that. There was never a question of cheating in the NBA and then it came out a Ref was fixing games....That's obviously a MUCH smaller scale than the NFL being fixed. But there's examples everywhere. Remember a year or two ago that NHL ref that got caught on a hot mic saying "there wasnt much there but I wanted to call a penalty on Nashville early". I'm just saying if in 10 years or whatever, there was proof of the NFL having a hand in outcomes of games, I wouldn't be shocked or surprised. This doesn't mean I watch Bills games and shout "THE LEAGUE IS FIXED" when the Bills don't win. I'm just open to that possibility. There's actually a few really good books I've read on the matter (sort of). Scorecasting, This Is Your Brain On Sports, and The Fix Is In....all great reads. The Ref's point influencing calls is actually really surprising in Scorecasting. Would recommend.
  4. They obviously aren't signing up for that, and that's obviously not how this would work if it was rigged. Nobody could event predict or plan that. I'd guess most of the players wouldnt even be aware of a "rigged" scheme if it even existed at all.
  5. No, money is always the ultimate motivating factor so I could see a way that would work against your point of "guys are getting injured" as a factor against it being rigged. I'm not under the impression the entire league is fixed down to every play call...but I'm open to the idea the league influences outcomes based on scheduling, referee assignments and calls, etc...
  6. Replace the word "conspiracy" in your reply with "Money", and yes. That's exactly it.
  7. Yeah he wasn't insinuating anything at all by that....
  8. You could spend 1 second to look it up and see that's what he did say...but nah. Too hard.
  9. Josh will be fine. Got the Dub
  10. Ravens stomping all over the Phins grave. Gonna be a hell of a game next week...
  11. Anything but a qb sneak here is wrong...even with the utter dumb ***** allen has done all day
  12. Bass better bring the leg or the board will explode
  13. Its gonna happen right? 😅
  14. Get me a FG at least with under 5 mins to go so i can take a piss
  15. Good lord im gonna be sick
  16. Fireable if we lose here and to MIA
  17. so incredibly stupid by this team
  18. I do not like this feeling
  19. Wonder why we didnt go for 2 earlier to make it 28 and a 2 td score lead.
  20. Not my problem. go bills
