I think the centralized review and call procedures have added to that appearance, and any time one team starts getting clear non-calls/favorable calls the questions are going to be asked.

Like has been pointed out, starting with the Boys win over the Skins there have been several non-called egregious helmet to helmet hits, and the "no clear recovery" ruling was a joke.

A similar one in the Seattle game is as you mentioned the picked up flag against Seattle for jumping over the line. Basically the point being if you want to know who the NFL wants in the playoffs from a ratings perspective, look at how the egregious calls have gone, and I am betting you will see a trend.

-written with tinfoil hat on.

Did the NFL want a Colt Mccoy led Redskins team with no "Star" appeal at all on offense and barely any on defense in the playoffs??? Yeah right lol, don't tell me ratings don't influence calls. Dallas is a MEDIA DARLING and also "Americas Team" They get better calls than anyone, its clear as day and only Cowboys fans will say otherwise.
