Since the foul wasn't deemed a dead ball foul because the whistle hadn't blown declining the foul would negate the play. The result of the play was a 16 yard loss on the sack, so the Packers could accept the foul and take 1st and 30 or decline and take 2nd and 31. It's just very rare to see a live ball personal foul on the offense on a play that already lost a bunch of yards. All personal fouls should be considered dead ball IMO, but that is not how the rules are set up currently.
Do certain individuals fix games? Of course. Doesn't take much research to find out that certain players/coaches have a price. However, this is a small fraction of overall players/coaches.
Does the NFL and other leagues want close games? Of course. It makes for compelling entertainment. Who wants to spend time watching a game when you know it is a total mismatch. No league wants that. That is why there is a draft from worst to first, salary caps, waivers, scheduling, etc. To attempt to create parity.
Is the NFL the WWF (or now WWE)? Hell no!

Maybe. Here is another story that is just as compelling as yours. Brady 3-3 in Super Bowls. A great QB of the 2000s nearing the end of his career. The torch is passed to another great QB of the 2010s...Russell Wilson. Like Brady, not a highly touted draft pick who wasn't given enough credit after his first super bowl win. Russell at the beginning of his career winning the super bowl in 2 of his first 3 years setting up a huge rivalry with Aaron Rodgers for the next 5-8 years along with other young QBs like Andrew Luck. They are the future of the NFL. Brady, Belicheck and the Pats are in their twilight after a great 13-year run.
There you go. Now that stuff is buyable on the fixx front. That stuff would benefit NFL.
Its all I ask for on Conspiracy Theories, plausibility.
So Fixx Cappers need to be on 'Hawks. Case Closed. No further arguments will be heard.
Well OK one more "You think NFL wants The now tainted yet again by accusations of cheating Patriots holding the trophy representing the face of ultimate success in their league?"
Book It Dano.
