2025 NFL

I assume there's some rule stretching in any competitive organized sport....the way footballs are handled and the rule changes last coupla years have been interesting.

Another video stated they found hand signals being stolen by NE vs Pitt in the 2001 AFC final. I've wondered if there were more than the 8 video tapes discovered by Goodell and the league and they destroyed them cause NE was pulling in the ratings and merch. It isn't a matter of were they doing this but the degree to which it benfited them. I remember 10-15 years ago a local reporter noticing that Belichick would not report players on IR before a game. If my memory is correct the guy who recorded the Rams walk through during the '02 SB was legally bound to not speak out, which suggests to me closing down whatever happened.

 

[Dude#1279435]

Ah the radio transmission with the head sets at Foxborough. That one I let go cause I'd thought it was a silly conspiracy till the one guy said in all his years he'd never had a headset problem till then. Or the six teams who complained all at NE. Mike Tomlin complained about it.

 

[Dude#1279435]

I think the shame is it leaves an asterisk to their legacy. 40 games were claimed to have been recorded. A whole "library" of signals LOL. He does a good job of explaining audibles and tendencies and decoding etc.

 

[Dude#1279435]

This one goes into detail Ernie Adams' role in the organization. This was going on as early as the Cleveland days.

 

[Dude#1279435]

It wouldn't surprise me if the NFL knew about NE for some time and once Mangini spoke out publicly on it then the league did something, like bury it LOL. It doesn't sound like Goodell viewed the tapes but had them erased. It wouldn't be surprising if it were more than 8 tapes but NE destroyed many beforehand. Sure, other teams may have been recording signals too, but it's the degree to which NE did it I'm concerned.

Goodell is nothing more than a 'tool' , for the owners sake ..........

 

[Dude#1279435]

In 2019 Pats did video recording of a Browns/Bengals game.. Who did the Pats play next? The Bengals. What was their record at the time? 1-12. Makes no sense.

Column: Patriots bring us a new scandal: Spygate 2.0

Anyone who's watched the New England Patriots stumble around for the past month or so surely saw this coming. With every wobbly pass delivered by Tom Brady, every disgusted look coming from beneath Bill Belichick's hoodie, every result that went on the wrong side of New England's won-loss...

Probably a fine after the playoffs and that's about it.

with his arraignment coming later this month and the seriousness of the charges, could be a lot more than a fine.
Regardless I hope it become a distraction for the Pats and they fall on their A$$

I don't really know enough about it, but it seemed like it was her word vs his.

It’s a new year but the haters still hate. As the t-shirt my wife got me says, they hate us cuz they ain’t us. If the Pats win tomorrow, they’ll lock up the #2 seed and play the bolts next week. The bolts won’t put up much of a fight in Denver tomorrow while they rest starters including their QB. Go Pats!

 

[Dude#1279435]

Some terrible calls going against Carolina. During the first half it could've been called the Rain Bowl it was coming down so hard LOL.

 

[Dude#1279435]

Welp that should do it. Another painful botch by Carolina. They still have a chance though if Atlanta bears NO. Neither team looks too good though.

 

[Dude#1279435]

Hawks got home field. However, Darnold....

 

[Dude#1279435]

If I could I'd trade all the local afternoon coverage for the NO/Atlanta game LOL. It's pretty meaningless.

 

[Dude#1279435]

Carolina fever
