I dont know if the networks have a say so in who goes, but they have a say in something. How many times have we seen a team get blown out in the first half and then they make a game of it in the second half? TV Ratings. That investment has to pay for itself somehow.

There is definitely manipulation or influence in the game. No question about it.

How many have you seen a team get blown out only to remain getting blown out?

You remember the comebacks, which is the reason for bias.

Aaron Rodgers interception was just a conspiracy to get the Cowboys back into the game....
