It would benefit the league immensely to have who they want playing and winning in certain games. You dont think an AFC Championship game between the Pats and Steelers would draw more hype/publicity/viewers than an AFC Championship game of the Dolphins and Bengals?
Integrity of the league? Youre kidding, right? The same league that covered up concussions for years, continuously lets players off the hook for bad life choices that are detrimental to the league, and has completely sold itself out to make a buck?
It wouldnt be that hard to skew games in favor of certain teams. Meet with officials, tell them to call pass interference a little tighter for a certain team etc. Thats all it takes.
If the NBA could do it, the NFL could certainly do it.
Yes, of course, certain match-ups will generate better ratings. I don't believe it's worth risking the scandal that would occur if it ever came out that the league was fixing it's own games.
If you think the league is that corrupt why do you still follow it?
