I think it’s pretty clear that, while the games aren’t necessarily faked, the officials do try to steer things in certain ways.
I don’t ever remember officiating having such a huge effect on the outcomes of so many games. And in the NFL, nothing ever happens without the league’s approval.
They want maximum drama and I’ve come to believe they “encourage” the officials to officiate in such a way as to make that happen.
