The NFL as a business is an autocratic institution in this country. I can't imagine too many people rooting for the NFL throughout this playoff round and new round of scrutiny. Goodell's message is that if you don't like it, there's the door. Otherwise, shut up and take it. That message goes for everybody, including media commentators during a broadcast, no less. So I'm sure they will hear it from above, but I think Troy Aikman already knows that as he's saying it. At least you can't call him a sellout like Rich Eisen, Mike Pereira and Mike Florio as they spin it and tell us what to think. Good for Troy Aikman. He blurted out the truth. That's credibility. I like that. I hold him in high esteem for his candor on national TV. Yes, I'm making a larger statement here, that what's blurted out here goes against a narrative, so why promote that narrative to begin with? What coalition of interests is being served by it? Does that insidious coalition have more rights and more say than everyone else? You can't just get away with everything forever and expect everybody to just shut up and take it. Somebody's going to say something eventually. Institutions lose credibilty when leaders subvert their authority and disrespect the game, as if they're above it all. Remember Omar from The Wire saying to McNulty in the cemetery, ["...personally, I don't think the game should be played like that..."] Omar was a killer, but a man has to have a code, no doubt. Otherwise, the game just isn't worth watching or playing. The recurring theme on The Wire was that high rollers, and thus their institutions, sold out to appeal to a broad coalition of interests instead of sticking to what they should be: credible. Somebody's selling out the NFL's credibilty to Vegas and Goodell's vicarious takes here on The Rich Eisen Show are emblematic of that. You can spin it all you want but nobody's fooling anybody now. The difference between Rich Eisen and Troy Aikman: Rich is incredible, caressing the party "line." Nick's even worse with the hedging. Don't bite the hand that feeds ya!
The Chiefs subvert the integrity of the NFL and it's not just the calls. Using the rules to hold off defenders and flopping is not sportsmanship. The Chiefs didn't even play to win the last game of the season, I don't care who they put on the field, that was not like an NFL game at all. They "played" that game to lose. Either way, they didn't see Joe Burrow, did they? They made sure. And don't overlook the fact that someone's selling out the NFL to Vegas. Nick Wright is worth 1B after this game. Don't ignore that. And don't forget, of course, that the Travish Kwift saga is too much money for the NFL to pass up!
Chiefs had 1, Tougher schedule. 2, faced better offenses, 3 faced better defenses all year than the Eagles. The Chiefs are ranked 4 in points per game allowed. Philly is 1. Denver and LA are 2 and 3. The Chiefs faced them each twice. This will be a great game but immediately saying that the Eagles defense will present more challenges than the chiefs is crazy talk. The Chiefs have plenty of defensive talent, and are better coached in all three phases. People are sleeping on the Chiefs offense. This is the deepest and best group of receivers in the NFL and it isnt particularly close. The fifth best chiefs receiver is still an excellent target.
Billy Bn said it best "I hate losing, I hate losing MORE than I LIKE winning AND there's a difference". BRILLIANTLY PUT
I would love for some NFL owners would hire Rex Ryan and Teddy Bruski as Head Coaches
I feel KC, will need to place life dependent football.
Both teams have made some improvements.
