I am with @Wireman

 

I watched this game from start to finish and it was a major turnoff for me as a fan.

 

I would like to know how each of the officials are selected and what their track record is on accuracy of calls.

 

The NFL got a Raider win like they wanted but again a very bad look.

Why does the NFL want the Raiders to win?

That's my problem. I don't mind that the Raiders won but it's the fact that it now looks like the NFL wanted the Raiders to win. Bad form by the league and makes everyone dislike the game even more.

Wondering the same myself.

Mexico is Raider Nation Land.

You did a better job of explaining it than me. I wanted the Raiders to win but it is definitely a bad look for the NFL even if that is just the conspiracy theory in you and I.

Mexico is Raider Nation Land.

And Texas is their neighbor. I'm not buying what you and Wireman are selling.

Yeah, but unlike me and @Wireman you didn't watch the game last night. Had you watched the game (or any of the pregame) you would know Mexico was Raider Country last night. And if we are talking about Texas, it is the Cowboys all the way and not the Texans.

Why didn't the Texans head coach challenge the spot on the third down play? That was a horrible spot. Perhaps the worst I have seen in any football game all year. That was the one he should have challenged.

Maybe he was in on it too. I mean...he did punt late in the game, which was a bizarre decision.

I know right.

 

I wonder if it was the same official that blew both calls.

So, the NFL saw the pregame populous of Raider fans, then relayed to the officials to rig the game for fear of a revolt. Still not buying.

It was definitely a Raider crowd.

You're slow today doc.

Not remotely. Just because I don't buy into the conspiracy theory doesn't mean I'm slow. And for the record, I've watched every highlight the NFL has on the game. And all the ones Wireman posted in here. I think this might be more a case of inept arbiters than a game on the fix. Just sayin'.
