Unlike any other season before, many fans have been referring to several games played this year as being rigged for the overwhelming discrepancy of calls on one team as opposed to the other. Sometimes non-calls are just as bad.
There is a new report this week that is not helping the notion that games are not being rigged.
According to a new study, there have been a total of 25 games where an NFL team did not commit a single penalty all game long.
Among those games, Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, and Aaron Rodgers led teams that accounted for 48% of them. This is an insane number for three of the best quarterbacks that have ever played in the league.
In the past decade, Brady has had four of these games, Rodgers has had three and Mahomes has two. There were just 8 other games. No other QB had more than one. Those other quarterbacks are Hurts, Russ, Brissett, Wentz, Kizer, EJ Manuel, Cutler, and Tannehill.
The sheer number had fans pondering if something sinister was going on:

For Tom Brady, his illustrious career has also been marred with controversy and cheating scandals, but he is still recognized as the best QB of all time. Brady is a seven-time Super Bowl winner who ended his career as the NFL’s all-time leader in passing yards (89,214), and touchdown passes (649).
Aaron Rodgers just had surgery for a torn Achilles that ended his 2023 season but all signs point to him continuing his career in 2024.
Patrick Mahomes is still in the midst of his hall-of-fame career as he just won his second Super Bowl back in January.
