    Coincidence? Maybe, but I doubt it

    Check out the nationally televised games in the NFL preseason so far. Almost all of them have gone under. Almost al of the final scores are ending with a total of 36-39 points. Now compare those final scores to the non televised games

    I get you but why would they want FEWER points scored on nationally televised games? That's where you lose me.
    Or are you saying that the QBs are getting nervous?

    There's so many questions for this one..

    Maybe it's PR control to 'prove' that the new idiotic rules won't make games super high scoring.

    Part of it could also be that public is heavily on the over and the NFL wants to fleece them.

    The Browns Bills game was definitely rigged by the refs. Buffalo fumbled on the punt return giving Cleveland the ball in Fg range, but they said not reviewable. Then a ticky tack roughing the passer at the end of game so the Bills can kneel down instead of kick a long FG.

    The flaw so many have when they bring up these conspiracies is believing the NFL is set to make more money off what little is gambled and then the even smaller "cut" they'd get fixing the game under, to the money they get from ratings and tv networks.

    Always an easy flaw in majority of conspiracy theories.
