Ignoring thrown snowballs

Factually true, but bull****. Legal home field advantage does not include allowing fans to do whatever the **** they want to interfere with the game.

 

So, what is it like wearing a tinfoil hat? Either of you may answer.

 

I mean DJ got a call just for saying something earlier in the year.

Diggs pushed a Steelers sideline worker to get there and went right at the bench to do it in front of the guys sitting there.

Turns around and the ref was there he had a look like he thought he was going to get flagged. We can laugh all we want, but you can bet if it was DJ or Pickens doing it, the hounds in the media will pounce on them and call them all kinds of undisciplined.

 

Wasn't the same crew though. They announced that crew wouldn't be doing any post-season games IIRC. It was a crew that seems to favor the Bills in penalties though when they call Bills games.

 

Ok, I stand corrected in that regard, but it still didn't change anything. Anyone with eyes can see that those officials were doing everything they could to screw the Steelers out of a win

 

Well, that all falls in line with my previous two posts

 

Home field advantage is called that because it's an advantage. Crowd noise, lack of travel, you get some calls, maybe even snowballs. It happens. Don't like it, I'll repeat, win the damn home field or make sure those things don't come into play by beating the snot out of the home team.

 

Newsflash: Steelers would have played Lamar Jackson and the Ravens had they beaten the Bills. Not Mahomes/Chiefs.

 

Well, it doesn't really matter. They weren't going to let the Steelers play against either one. It's pretty obvious that they want an Allen vs Mahomes matchup for the conference championship

 

That would have actually required the refs to make a call against the Bills.

 

Stadium security addresses fan behaviour, not the refs. Since when do the refs hand out penalties to a team for fan behaviour?

 

Have an adult read your post back to you to try to understand why it's so ridiculous

 

No it doesn't. But like I said if the tables were turned it would probably have happened.

 

Sorry, no. The officials failing to do their jobs is not acceptable just because the Steelers were the road team. That is utter nonsense. Crowd noise is fair. Challenges with travel are fair. Poor officiating is not. Allowing fans to interfere with the game is not.

 

Does your tinfoil hat mess up your hair? Is it uncomfortable?

The NFL is not fixing games to get a preferred matchup. There is no way they would have been able to do it for any length of time and not have someone spill the beans. The risk is too high for such a minimal reward. Seriously, just stop. You're embarrassing yourself.

 

oh lol. Well Rudolph vs Lamar isn’t sexy either lol

 

Have you seen LJ's record vs. Steelers?

 

You "fanboys" crack me up, lol. You rather just blame it on "poor officiating" than realized the obvious, that these games are DEFINITELY rigged! Legalized gambling has ruined the NFL, and you're a fool if you don't think that Vegas doesn't control the NFL when so much money is at stake. I'm not saying every game is rigged (even though I'm leaning that way), but you're blind if you can't see how the officials totally dictate the outcome of at least some games. Anyway, I'm not going to try to burst your little bubble, you're welcome to go on living in your fantasy world if it makes you happy

 

LMAO. By all means, keep going. I do love how people with no evidence to support their wild, illogical claims just insist it is obvious.

You really think the NFL has been fixing games for years, even decades, and they have been able to cover it up perfectly. Seriously. That is your argument. Conspiracy theorists like you are good for the rest of us. All human beings need something to laugh at.

Just the keep the fun going, I'll point out some of the reasons you are embarrassing yourself.

It has nothing to do with being a fan or a fanboy. I've actually covered NFL games. I've interviewed coaches, general managers, and players. I know reporters who are around these teams on a daily basis. Some of them are lazy cowards who would happily ignore such a massive cover-up, but plenty are just the sort of driven lunatic that they would gleefully burn the whole thing to the ground to prove it if there was any validity to your cockamamie theory. There isn't.

The Steelers lost because they played like ****. They had ugly blown coverages on the Bills' first two touchdowns. They tackled like crap. They were overly-conservative and sloppy on offense. Their two turnovers were ugly, devastating mistakes. The offensive line mostly got its ass kicked. They could afford none of that against the Bills, a red-hot team with an elite quarterback.

That said, let's look at just one play that makes you look bad. If the game was fixed, Freiermuth's fumble would have gone to the Bills. It was an easy opportunity to hand the game to Buffalo. That is just one of a million reasons your lunacy makes no sense at all.

By all means, keep going. Make me laugh.

 

What evidence do you need? Many former NFL players have come out and openly admitted that NFL games are rigged. Who should I believe, people that have actually been on the inside, or you?

 

I agree. Throwing crap onto the field, especially snow balls which can very dangerous is very controllable by the refs and should have been enforced. The Steelers coaches have an easy enough time screwing our offense without any help from an away fan base. Heck. Away fan bases should install a Laugh -O-Meter up on their video screen when our team runs its offensive plays. Some defensive ones also.

 

Doesn't make me look bad at all, in fact it just supports my theory that refs are intentionally making bad calls. Anyone can see that it was a fumble and recovered by the Bills, including the refs, especially so after viewing the replay. I'm not really sure why they let the play stand, maybe they just wanted to keep the game relatively close, but it was irrelevant to the eventual outcome that they wanted

 

so, if they said that what would prevent Steelers fans from throwing snowballs to get the 15 yard penalty on the bills?

 

We are classier than that lol

 

Please provide a link to back that up. Keep in mind that some player whining about their team getting screwed like Diontae Johnson did after the Jaguars game is not evidence of a game being fixed.
