@Mr. Scot I remember back in the 70s when the referees were seen as having amazing integrity.  They were viewed as keepers of the game and bad calls were devastating.  No one outside of the mafia could sway these refs.  It is NOT like that now.  At all.  It is a true conspiracy for ratings.  If it wasn't so obvious it could be questioned but I remember how it used to be.

I don't buy into the refs being corrupt so much as I do them just sucking at their job.

The quality of officiating has definitely gone down.

(though granted, people have always complained about the refs)

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

People love to hate the Chiefs because of their success but reality is they are just flat out better than every other team lately. Refs have had zero impact on them winning, this year or in previous years. Mahomes is the best QB since prime Rodgers (arguably better), Reid is the best coach ever and they’ve got an elite D. Any given Sunday and all, but a three peat seems inevitable. 
 

In the NFC, wouldn’t surprise me one bit to see Commanders/Rams fighting next week to represent in the SB. Commanders were really underrated coming into these playoffs and the Lions this year remind me of the Titans several years ago when they had the 1 seed and fell flat on their faces in the divisional. Rams are also legit with a SB winning QB and coach.

I don't believe they outright rig games, but they do tolerate the refs with a wink and a smile 

It's more of a "thumb on the scale" type of situation, not outright rigging. But man, that thumb has been really, really heavy for the Chiefs this season.
