"Bad calls" never go in the Redskins favor but their opponents get away with penalties and worse constantly. The refs taking away Griffin's td over a 'judgment call' was the last straw for Moss, who has been on the team for like 10 seasons and watched it happen season after season. Fans have too. Opposing teams breathe on Peyton Manning the wrong way and get flagged. Opposing teams go after Griffin's legs and refs look the other way. Then they take away his td on a judgment call that would have given them the lead. Nope, not allowed. But then the Redskins beat the Eagles (clearly a much better team, by record at least), thus setting up the Cowboys big "win and in" game today......where their 10-4 opponents forgot how to play the game suddenly.
Playoff teams are predetermined before the season even starts (offseason owner's meetings....could call it the NFL Bilderberg meetings?) and everything from week 1 to week 17 is about making it happen for maximum profit to the league and owners, whether it's general revenues, ratings and/or public money to owners for various stadium projects. As always, follow the money. The rigging to get this predetermined outcome becomes more obvious later in the season when you see certain teams (ahem Indy) forget how to play the game suddenly and help usher in another predetermined team (ahem Cowboys). Or like Brian noticed, horrendous officiating. It's not accidental. DAL/IND is an example I noticed today but it's fairly obvious to see it in action if you can separate yourself from any "team spirit" and realize it's simply a business and is run no differently than governments are. The schedules are set up to ensure these match-ups late in the season. You see the same principle in elections.
