This is been going on for years and Las Vegas is not a nonprofit organization. Anyone who believes athleticism, coaching, field position, weather, and a rowdy crowd still matter are so naive.

No shite. You don’t build all those hotels and casinos from losing money. However, you can’t convince me games are fixed

I'm pretty sure Marcus Williams would pay to have that play over again.

There's .01% chance that shite was rigged.

I think officiating is rigged

I do find it interesting that Minny got all the calls in the first half, and then nothing called in the second half. The NFL just doesn’t like blowouts.

The NZI was definitely ignored by the refs.

He is going to be paying a huge fine when Goodell deals with this. He can't allow the integrity of the game to be compromised.

So a guy who stands to make around 50 million in his career chose to throw the game in the most humiliating fashion for some quick cash?

How much did they pay him to risk his career as a rookie? They paid him to make the most important interception of the game to make it look realistic when he alone had the game in his hands on the last play? How did they know that he specifically would have that opportunity? How many other players did they pay? The payroll ran dry just short of paying the Vikings to kick the PAT to cover?

Little weird that he put his head down when he was passed receiver

Officials were dog shite but I don’t think it was in the NFL’s best interests to rig the game in favor of the Vikings. I think they would have preferred a Brady vs Brees face off to hype up

The dude was legitimately crying after the game. It was an honest mistake. It's ridiculous that some even think this is a possibility.

While I’m quite confident this wasn’t fixed and even if it were he wouldn’t be in on it, him crying doesn’t disprove such a crazy theory

The early game PI's were demoralizing

I don't think it was rigged. I really don't.

But, I've never seen a guy whiff on a tackle with no move taking place. If there was ever a play that looked like it was fixed, that was it.

If Marcus Williams were being paid by Vegas to make sure the Saints lost, why would he have made the interception earlier in the game? Case closed on this dumb shite.

Even though I'm not a fan of big government, I'm more of a sports fan - I wish sports betting was flat out illegal. Vegas is the ultimate shithole and I can't believe they're getting an NFL team.
