Quote:I couldn't care less who comes out of the NFC, but games like this show that if the Jags ever do get good, the NFL has the ability to control the outcome of games to ensure "less popular" teams don't advance.

 

Dude, I'm with you...

 

Think about how Seattle felt with their SB they lost to the, wait for it...  squeelers....  

 

You got to just assume that you're gonna be not getting any calls untill you hit that level of awareness that the 'boys, giants, squeelers, packers, and pats get...

 

I mean, at a more micro level, think of the types of hits that BB5 takes and gets no calls versus how refs coddle the high end QBs...  To say that at some level the big markets DON'T get some sort of leniency is to ignore how things have been transpiring for multiple decades.

 

Again, 2 SBs come to mind quickly.  The AZ/Pitt and the Seatlle/Pitt SBs of the 2000s were pretty darn shady...
