This one is about Brady! Listen to what he says about this!
First, Aaron Rodgers told Packers fans to "R-E-L-A-X." Then Tom Brady sent a similar message to Patriots fans. Amazingly, both top tier QBs then led their teams to victories. Granted, the Packers only had to get through the Bears (in Week 4) and Vikings (starting their 3rd string QB in a shortened Week 5), but Brady and the Patriots demolished the seemingly strong Bengals. How was this possible?
If you ask me - and you are reading this so in a sense you did ask - it was because in Week 5, both the Vikings and Bengals laid down. Now the Vikes seemed completely disinterested in playing for Christian Ponder (and perhaps you can't blame them), but what made the Bengals suddenly incapable of playing coherent football? Hard to say, but from what I saw Sunday night, someone told them "it's not your night" and the team simply shrugged off the game.
Look, Brady - despite his history of cheating via Spygate - and likely Rodgers are Hall of Fame bound. The NFL relies on these guys to sell games, and the league is not about to let these QBs post sub .500 records (even if the Packers have zero defense and Brady's "weapons" are nonexistent). These guys will win because the NFL DEMANDS they win.Speaking of demands, apparently the NFL is tied of seeing primetime games (like the past couple of Thursday nighters) turn into uninteresting blowouts. So the league, through their lap-dog referees, kept Monday night's game between the Seahawks and Redskins as close as possible. As Seahawks safetyEarl Thomas said, "I think it is Monday Night Football, you know, the fans are watching and everybody wants to see a good game, so they are going to try and make it as close as possible. It’s a business."Earl gets it. Of course, he also had a sideline view of referees calling back not one, not two, but threePercy Harvin touchdowns due to Seahawk penalties. The most ridiculous call-back came courtesy of an "unnecessary roughness" call on a block. Seriously. A block. And people pay - and bet - good money on this sport...NEW - The 2014 NFL season - The Fix Is In
