I think it's much more likely that it is an amazingly gross display of incompetence moreso than rigging. It was shitty refereeing on both sides for the entire game and shitty refereeing at the end.

That could be another interesting development, both sides almost always get away with everything on the last play of the game, maybe with this play undergoing such controversy, could influence how future plays are called.
hahahah, Tate gets asked "Did you push off?" His response: "I don't know what you're talking about."

The Packers were -3, I believe so they would've covered if it wasn't for the call. I do agree, though, that it is far more likely to be incompetence than rigging. I don't believe these guys are good enough to rig a game.

A real shock And the terrible last play is overshadowing the very questionable and very key penalties earlier in the drive, roughing the passer and defensive PI. Packers got the benefit of a bad PI call on Chancellor but that trio of bad calls benefiting Seattle was just incredible. I hope the players can keep their heads up and just get ready for New Orleans and move on. I still feel confident that the Packers will make the playoffs and at that point the regular season means nothing.

Well on a side note. That Td gave me the win in my fantasy football this week. I just checked it and i won 87.42- 85.30 that td took off 3 pts for other dude. im so happy. haha. If anyone's wondering he had the GB defense.

I think the Patriots should just replace that old hack of Brady with JaMarcus Russell, he'll win more rings than Joe Montana will dream, with his interceptions. #FireRivers should be blowing up on twitter right now, along with #FreeRyanLeaf and #HireLeaf.
