Ah, the smell of unsubstantiated conspiracies in the air; it’s football season at the Cowboyszone.

I tend to think all sports are rigged to some level or degree. Not sure how, but I know one thing is certain. Everything that involves men and lots of money will never be above corruption.
Too many shenanigans to think otherwise.

The fix was in for the game. The line moved from -14 to 10.5 in the 36 hours before the game. Diggs was not worth that many points. Guarantee somebody got rich off this game. If the league does not investigate this game than that tells me the nfl it’s self is predetermine these games.
Lol!

Lol. Where were these threads the past 2 weeks? Oh right, we won those. So now the refs and CONSPIRACY! return. I knew they would with the first L.
And reality is, most of the calls were dead on accurate. We played stupidly yesterday. The one offsides on the FG was weird but was no real factor as they ended up with 3 anyway. The other offsides were just plain dumb on our part. Stupidity like holding a guy at the LOS on that long punt return by Turpin. Just sad but not surprising coming from a McCarthy team that has had it's issues with penalties since he's gotten here.

So....you see the state of affairs here...and around the world (no politics allowed :cool: ) but you think a vegas/nfl partnership is impossible?

Im not saying it happened. Only that of course its possible. Lotta money involved.....follow it.

Vegas all day. Tyron looking pissed on the sidelines knowing he should be playing. Two run plays called in a row in the redzone with goal and a mile to go. All the penalties and the two pass interference calls picked up? Steve Christie sitting with Jerry in the suite.

Leighton too. Seen him get blown up a few times and couldn't shed the blocks. DL can't be so over aggressive and allow OL to get to the second level getting blocks on the LBs. Stats is nice but do your job first, allow the LBs to run free, get the other team in a hole where they have to pass...... Then you can pin your ears back for sacks.

Got to stop them first or teams will continue to run the ball all the way down the field
Gotta earn those sacks and this team already knew that but seemed to have forgotten that in this game.

Yep. I've been here for years and have never seen one after a Cowboys win. Go figure.

Some people need to understand how betting lines work - it isn't any 'pundits' making forecasts, but rather the supply/demand of betting that needs to be kept more or less in balance + the % profit the betting houses/bookies make as 'brokers'

The Cowboys were favored. It didn't matter if the line was -1 or -20, everyone who bet the Cowboys lost.

Had the Cowboys won 28-16 then the line moving from -14 to -10.5 matters. It didn't. They lost outright.

We loss by 12 points, even if we somehow won we wasn't covering that spread lol. They got punched in the mouth, that's it.

I always wonder about games. The refs were horrible. The PI in the endzone was a easy call on Gallup…

Want evidence of rigging for Vegas? Check out the cowboys vs Vikings when rush was starting. Refs gave them 5 first downs on one single drive to cover the spread and they couldn’t do it
