If you think the officials are done at just manipulating the KC/NO games...you didn't pay attention to their 2016 "convince Nevada politicians to green-light the move" tour. Carr actually set a NFL record for most 4th quarter comebacks...yeah right...then that "best ever in history...ice in your veins" magic just vanished...never to reappear. So how do you immediately fall off this imaginary cliff...only to start to redeem yourself a few years later?
Simple...build a stadium in the gambling capital of the universe.
They were *cough* "good" in 2016..when they were seeking relocation approval...suddenly, they are "good" again in 2020 when the move is complete...just shave off 18 points from the SB champs and you're magically a "winner".
2015 7-9, 2016 12-4, 2017 6-10, 2018 4-12, 2019 7-9...their one winning record was when they were "lobbying" politicians.

Wow. Those drugs must be prime out there in KC. Imagine believing the refs/league has ever been on the Raiders side
