With all the money that the gambling industry makes off of the NFL they are more than happy to deal with the frivolous attempts at lawsuits, the largest of which might be a single piece of sand in their Nevada desert of profit.

The NFL is a private business so it is entirely legal for it to pre-determine the outcome of its games, just as the WWE does. Ultimately, it need be no different than a scripted television series or movie. Explains all the "sketchy" ref calls.
