I am noticing a trend league wide where officiating intentionally keeps games close when blowout potential is approaching. Obviously the Browns are not going to hang with the Patriots, but I have noticed what seems to be an effort to keep home teams in the game (more concession sales, tax revenue, higher TV ratings, and higher advertising revenue result). Also their is an uncanny way that teams can not pull away in their division either. *Keep the race going on until the end. Even teams that you clearly expect to dominate, can't get easy wins to take a 2 or 3 game lead in the division? Shady. Keep an eye out for more shadyness.
