Yeah the whole conspiracy theory thing has popped up on my Facebook at least five times since the game ended. My favorite was "The NFL had to fix the game because no one would show up to an Atlanta based SuperBowl in New Orleans played in it."

I guess, from a certain perspective, you could say it does, but odds are odds and however they go about it, it’s still 50/50. People who moan and bitch about the game being decided by a coin flip wouldn’t stop complaining if it were done the way you suggest. Of course, people like that complain about anything, so what the hell. It’s not a terrible idea anyway. It would remove the manners and fair play aspect of letting the away team call it, but I doubt anyone would care. Not like the refs are playing for the home team. Unless they’re in Foxboro, right?
Yes and no. The odds the coin will land on one side or another is 50/50 (presumably) but at the end of the day people are flipping the coin and people are calling it. Does it make a statistical difference? I have never seen anything which says yes, but it is still the perception of it though. A home/away coin removes that doubt, removes the perception.
It's not my only recommendation, just part of it.People who moan and bitch about the game being decided by a coin flip wouldnâ??t stop complaining if it were done the way you suggest.
Julian Edelman is FAR away from the Hall of Fame
The Super Bowl has been boring so far
But the worst part is they didn't play Sweet Victory
Brady and the Patriots win. Again. I'm typically a fan of dynasties, but goodness this is beyond stale.
