Is there any doubt now that officials are crooked?

But you're still not allowed to challenge a bad call. The game is really fast. If the system doesn't override the bad call, a coach should be allowed to throw his red flag and get it looked at with more time.
IMO, the calls have gotten worse since the NFL started the command center with arm chair refs overseeing field officials. In their view, the product is better. Hence they see no need to install a challenge system.

It has been 10 games since one of the best pass rushers in the league has been held.

I don't think the league is crooked, the refs just suck and make calls in the trenches randomly.

I think eventually, it's going to cost them. Fans won't spend money on this sport indefinitely. Eventually, people will start walking away, and that means the league will lose money. I'm not saying you're wrong, btw. You're right. I just think eventually, a lot of fans of every team will say "[bleep] this", and they'll walk away.

I already have walked away. I don’t spend a dime on the NFL. In my house we actually laugh at the refs and calls / no calls because it feels so obviously steered.

I see it as well that refs seem to screw us, but why have a conspiracy against the richest most popular team in the world in any sport to keep them from winning? I know Goodell is a Giants fan but still makes no sense.
Not that I believe there's a conspiracy, but billionaires who own football teams can be petty men. There's probably a lot of jealousy toward Dallas.

I’m telling you, coaches now need a challenge flag or even two per game for penalties called or not called. It all should be reviewable. Too many games decided on calls or no calls.
Thats like the police policing themselves. They're not gonna change the call based in a challenge cause they're gonna be mad.

Same here. This will cost them dearly, along w/ the league-wide sloppy play due to the Player's U insistence on only one practice a week in pads.

ball calls are being made to keep games closer and fan-favorite teams alive.

There is no way to explain this other than corruption at the highest levels. No other explanation. PERIOD.
