Support for the conspiracy theory

Ladies and Gentlemen I have news that you can consider good news or bad news.  Regardless of what you call it, I call it proof.  Granted, there is no need more for proof since visual evidence has already been gathered through the eyes of millions of fans, but here I have something in print.  I have an admission of guilt from the culprit himself. 

It has been said more than once here that the lack of holding penalties on opposing offensive lines is concerning.  Especially since we can see with our own eyes blatant holding.  Well I now submit to you the words of Chargers' tackle Marcus McNeill.   When asked by Bill Center of the San Diego Union-Tribune about the abilities of Steelers’ Linebacker James Harrison this is what McNeill said, “He's a great defensive player. I'm going to have my hands full all game. He covers as well as he rushes passer. He's fast and strong. I even had to tackle him one time last game when he came on a blitz. I don't want to have to do that again.” 

Those who doubted if you really say what you saw...quit doubting.

Ok, so let's see if the officials can start seeing what McNeill and Harrison know firsthand and the rest of the world knows by observation.  Don't let the Black and White interfere with a Black and Gold win.

This can be found in an article on the San Diego Union-Tribune website.

Might as well

Tie a choke chain around deebo and hand McNeil the leash. But that dog is going to break free once, and when it does it’s going to tear that stupid face off Ignatius.

This is proof that

an OT knows he broke a rule, and doesn’t go too far to show any thing else, conspiracy or otherwise. Indeed, if anything, it shows the lack of conspiracy (if he’s aware of an effort to ignore these calls, I doubt he’d flaunt past non-calls.)

I’d have to agree. The “proof” isn’t exactly overwhelming.

Conspiracy or not, just like the Ravens said after Tones game winning catch, you can’t put yourself in the position to allow the refs to control the outcome of the game.

Regardless of how it goes Sunday, all we really need to do is not turn the ball over. I doubt holding calls are going to suddenly appear now.
