Yes, it's very possible and I think it'd be naive to believe otherwise. There's evidence of some form of corruption in pretty much every major sport.
That said, I could make lots of arguments against the NFL being completely rigged. For instance, I'm sure it didn't help the NFL that the Rams were terrible in their first season back in LA. Why have the Bears been terrible for most of the last 25 years? Chicago is a HUGE market. The Cowboys had a long stretch of mediocrity. The Pats had a pretty long dry spell in the playoffs between 2004 and 2014.
Because it's got to do wth the stars of the league (buisness)
Why has Chicago bulls been bad? Why have the Yankees fell off? Why has new york Knicks never won a title? Why has Cleveland cavs all the sudden a contender every year.
Yes you can make a argument they are stars with talent. But come on lebron gets a foul call for everything. You can't hardly touch Brady most the time. Just look at our playoff game with the Steelers, it's been talked about forever how the calls were one sided,but since Jeremy fumbled people focus on that more. That game alone was comical. Big Ben coming in for the last drive like superman. How come we have never seen anything like that here. Why couldn't andy come in like Superman ever. It's just too fishy for me over all the years and what I witnessed.
Hres another one, how someone's star player all the sudden goes to a rival . Like deion Sanders did when he jumped from San Fran to Dallas. Winning two rings. Too fishy. Same with gruden switching teams. Everything is always so convenient . Rey Lewis ,Bettis and cower, manning going out on top. Peyton Manning's ******** brother beating the pats when peyton couldn't do it. Seattle's ******** throw and int at the goaline. New Orleans wins one after their economy took a huge loss. Green bay moving on from legend farve . I'm sure the list goes on and on.
Hres one, not being able to use no huddle in our superbowl, but the next year it was allowed and 49ers win with it.
