Wasn’t mentioned today, but Wells Report notes Patriots were warned in '04 after non-approved practice balls ended up in win over Jets.
But over a period of time, it made a difference...look at the Patriots turnover ratio compared to the rest of the NFL...it's so far above the rest of the league, it's obnoxious...lol.
Idk man i hate the pats as much as anyone but in the end blaming balls is a bit much. They haven't won since 04 so its not like it helped them alot.There superbowl to me this year was legit.
i think the sb win and afc championship games are legit,i just that they dishonored the shirt out of the game by by knowingly cheating which they clearly did.you win with honor,play with honor,and when you lose you lose with honor too. they shirt all over that and got by with it regardless of the outcome.
the league needs to find a way to monitor psi's in footballs used in games,but i have no idea how they can do that! maybe put a gage on the football's skin or something?
the deal is not about whether or not they would have won with deflated balls, it is about breaking the rules. no matter if it gave an advantage or not. let's go back to our bullshirt. There was no evidence whatsoever proving the bounty was in play. The only one who said yes it happened was a coach who was fired by Coach Payton and wanted to get back at Payton. No player was injured during that period. And the defense actually had like the third less personal fouls at that time. The Patriots coach should have been suspended but he wasn't. Coach got suspended because of the cover up. The Pats covered up.
One day brady's kids are gonna read all about this story a KNOW the guy lied his ass off about all this and confront him over it.wtf is he gonna say to them? to me,the cover up is worse and more long lasting than the crime can ever come close to being.is he gonna lie to his kids or admit he covered it up? either way,he is gonna get caught up in a lie.
