Dirty filthy cheating scum! Texting each other about cheating. Pitiful. Tom Brady should be removed from the league or at least fire the idiot coach.

I've been a football fan for a long time. I just really honestly dont get why anyone thinks this helped the pats win the game. Also, the NFL allowed every team to have their own ball prep guys for every game. What did they think was happening?

Teams handling their own balls wasn't always a thing. It happened in 2006? 2007? campaigned for by peyton manning and thomas edward patrick brady jr.

Yeah. But it was the nfl's call to allow it. It was pretty much a look the other way type of scenario. I'm sure Brady and Manning both abused the system. Along with all the other qb's in the league.

I don't mean to insult you by implying you're a Pats fan, but the speeding ticket defense? C'mon son!

Falcons fan. Would have loved to see either team win to be honest. Both great teams.

Cowboys fan, and I wanted the Seahawks to win all the way. The pats aren't a great team. The way they beat Baltimore was a chicken shit tactic that shouldn't even be allowed in high school games. "I know, let's line up our linemen to be eligible receivers!" No shame.

Why shouldn't it be allowed? Football is all about scheming and being smarter than your opponent. Don't be dumb as fuck and cover Vereen (RB I know, but I figured you'd get to this example next) when the Ref reports him as ineligible. Or cover the lineman that gets reported as eligible.

Also let's not ignore the fact that the report also stated that four of the Colts balls weren't properly inflated either.

They actually did break the rules, though. When you make a declaration of an ineligible receiver as being eligible, you're supposed to give the defense time to adjust. The grace period was not enforced (either by oversight of the refs/Ravens or Patriots abusing their lack of familiarity with the rules). Once somebody did tell the Ravens the rules, the Patriots stopped doing it.

They should have just had Ray Lewis stab the receivers. I hear he's good at that.
