Did Turner gain another 30 pounds after tweeting that?

The 2 games have a lot of similarities. One team getting the brunt of favorable calls but at the same time, their defense just completely manhandling the opposing team to the point it's not clear if it would've mattered. Panthers game would've been a lot more competitive than this at least.

Rigged

Well, it was obvious.  The NFL goes with the best/most interest-drumming storylines.  And the way they influence games is by neutering one team early to where they become more passive and fall behind.  When you let one team play with maximum physicality and tell the other they can't, it makes for a dramatically different game, and one in which the team that isn't favored falls behind and and has little hope of getting back in it.  

It was really sad to see how this game played out tonight, but the NFL had their yes men do what they wanted done early, and that was enough.  The NFL is a crooked, disgusting, absolute poo organization.

Roger Goodell has been the worst commissioner in the history of sports.

Yup.  Absolute piece of poo.  

The emphasis on image rather than it being about the game has resulted in a complete undercutting of any credibility the league ever had.  From the destruction of the Spygate tapes, the handling of the Ray Rice situation, the blatantly bad officiating in big games, and all the other garbage that has shown Goodell has no moral compass and cares only about the bottom line, it just makes it hard to enjoy many games of consequence anymore.

We were considerably more competitive.

It really did feel this way in the 1st half. KC isn't a team that gets shook being behind. They know they can comeback. They were frustrated because they weren't being allowed to compete.

Stop......that Panthers team had more than enough chances to win that game and did a pretty good job of choking.

While the refs weren’t favorable to KC today, the Bucs SMASHED the chiefs today

Everytime they had a chance or was warming up, the refs cooled them off.

I don't buy into the NFL being rigged, but that was as poorly officiated a game as I've seen in a while.
