Social Media Calls Out The Refs For “Rigging” Steelers-Patriots TNF Game After Controversial Game-Changing Call

NFL fans are convinced that the “Thursday Night Football” game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots at Acrisure Stadium was fixed.

This is nothing new in the NFL world, but Clay Martin and his crew made a horrific game-changing call late in the fourth quarter that has led to countless “The fix is in” screams from fans.

With five minutes to go in the fourth quarter, Pittsburgh was preparing to punt while trailing by three points. Even though the Patriots clearly jumped offside first, the Steelers were flagged for “false start” instead of getting a fresh set of downs:

That call on the long snapper is a prime example of why more and more people think the fix is in. The NFL needs to figure this out before it all blows up. Eventually it will.
