Remember earlier this year the Browns had back to back games with clear penalties working in their favor at the end of the game, with the 2nd game having multiple game ending calls working in their favor?
The first Browns game handed to them, a minute later I think it was Pickett rushing on 4th and 1 in the steelers game, getting 0.5 yards and the refs giving him a first down to end the game.
Browns getting those favorability in back to back games was highly suspect.
Seemed the ball basically never bounced our way all year. Whenever we needed someone to lose, they'd win, including today. Like every team that was supposed to lose, won, lol.
I see the NFL as gladiator, you win the crowd, you win it all. Only Burrow can win the crowd, you have to have something to watch. Lamar, the Browns defense, steelers not having a losing season in 55 years straight, etc. You don't win the crowd you don't get the favorable calls, you don't get the favorable calls you will probably lose. It only takes 1 unfavorable call for you to lose.
Mahomes complaining this is not a product NFL fans want to watch revealed this. It doesn't matter what the honest play is as long as it looked good, if you look good you win. I *think* belichick famously said if you're not trying to cheat you're not trying to win.
