Part of the issue is Goodell’s fondness for the Chiefs is well known. If you’re a ref even getting the assignment for a playoff game is a big deal. They know what to do to keep the boss happy. The league office had an opportunity to address this after the Texans game with a statement that those calls against the Texans may not have been the best. Instead, they issued a statement (which is an odd thing to have to do in the first place) doubling down.

Moe - I understand where you're coming from with regards to watching games.

Carter - honest question - if "the script" favors your team next year, how much actual joy will it bring you given that "its scripted?" Seems exceptionally hollow.

Questions for both of you:

Is the SB fix set? Are the Chiefs guaranteed to win? Is it impossible for the Eagles to be so much better that they cant overcome the fix? (Here I admit I cant adequately size them up with precision).

I don’t think the SB is fixed for the most part. It’s the teams that get there that matters most. Although I tend to think calls may favor Mahomes due to his status and due to the 3 peat storyline that is paraded around so much.

Fair question. What I’m really hoping is that if Kelce retires and the NFL realizes it is taking a bit of a beating for fixing from some pretty popular figures with huge followings (Jomboy, Portnoy, etc), those two things combine for a more even playing field next year. Here’s hoping.
