here's a scenario for you guys:
Carson Palmer did tear his ACL. The Cardinals will make the playoffs, but due to them being one of the more inferior playoff teams in the NFC, they will lose in the 1st round.
and another ridiculous scenario:
the games are not fixed! However, officials, like all human beings, do have certain bias towards certain star players like Peyton Manning. Just like NBA officials will give players like Kobe and Michael the benefit of the doubt on certain calls.
I know, insane scenarios.
Way less rational takes than 'the NFL doesn't want the Cardinals to win so they made Carson Palmer fake an ACL tear and you can't prove otherwise so clearly he's faking it.'
