It looked like NFL doesn't want low market cities to win case in point the Vikings 12-116 vs the Bengals 3-15 in penalty called and yards.
In the past, some members would whine about Cincy being a low market city and the calls going against them by the NFL and the referees.
Well, Minnesota is a lower market city compared to Cincinnati and by using the same logic, Minnesota got shafted including the "fumble" in overtime that turned the game.
Of course, I don't believe in this fallacy. But that is what I read from some of you members.
If that was true then NY and LA would be dominating NFL title Championships.
Maybe in the MLB there is bias against low market cities because of NY Yankee dominance.
But not in the NFL.
If that was true when was the last time the Jets made the SuperBowl.
The Bengals have appeared in more NFL title Championships than the New York Jets.
No, the Bengals won on Sunday because they were the better team.
Bias is not small market vs big market cities.
Bias is freaking Pittsburgh Stealer games where the NFL goes out the way for them.
