This Is Pretty Bad: Miami Dolphins Get Screwed Over So Horrendously That It Makes You Think The NFL Is Outright Rigged

Point, blank, period, this was some of the worst officiating in the history of the NFL, if not the worst: the Dolphins got screwed.

The Miami Dolphins and Philadelphia Eagles squared off on NBC’s “Sunday Night Football,” and boy oh boy, was it a doozy. And not in a good way. Not for the Dolphins, not the Eagles, not the entire National Football League – NOBODY.

For example, with 2:39 left to go in the first half, Miami offensive tackle Austin Jackson and Philadelphia defensive tackle Jalen Carter got into a bit of a mix-up, which led to Carter giving Jackson a pop in the face. In retaliation, Jackson gave Carter a good whack, and then Carter … like a real annoyance you would expect out of Philly … flopped in true European soccer style to earn himself an offsetting unnecessary roughness call to nix the flag against the Eagles.

And that’s the intro to this blog … we haven’t even scratched the surface of what happened in Pennsylvania.

It’s not just one, two, three, four, five bad calls we’re looking at here: we’re talking about a boat load that Brad Allen’s officiating crew made — bad calls against the Dolphins and bad no-calls against the Eagles — and judging by Allen’s history, it all makes sense.

Altogether, the Dolphins had 10 penalties against them, while the Eagles had ZERO, NONE, NADA!

But I’m sure it was all just a coincidence … *blatant sarcasm.*

And these bad calls were outrageously obvious, too.

Just check this ish out:

And then there’s this … roughing the passer, my foot …

Don’t ask me, ask former NFL official and current NBC rules analyst Terry McAulay.

McAulay also noted both the Dolphins and Eagles got hit with offsides on this play when it should have just been the Birds.

Just look at this entire Twitter thread from user @MikMcDaniel for God’s sake: there’s so much nonsense that favored Philly.

The Dolphins got screwed, royally screwed. I don’t think Miami could have gotten more screwed, it was so terrible.

We might be 5-2 now, but as far as I’m concerned, we’re 6-1 with a fat asterisk right beside it — the same asterisk that’s on the Eagles’ “win” and their 6-1* record.

What a joke, man. The officiating was so horrible that I’m legitimately over here being skeptical about the National Football League being rigged, definitely with this particular game. You can accuse me of being a sour fan if you want, but the evidence is overwhelming as hell, as far as I’m concerned.

And then you have this …

It just gets better and better.

The Dolphins got SCREWED, and the NFL very well might be RIGGED.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
