1 game in and Patriots are in the middle of another scandal

[letsgo]

It's all Tom Brady's fault.

Perception is reality. It doesn't happen anywhere else.

Gillette Stadium is known to lack the ability to reach the 1.21 gigawatts required for powering the headsets. They need a bolt of lightning.

I can not believe I side with Konjo but he is exactly right. New England is the scum of the league. In 5 years, Brady will be retire and Belicheat will probably be as well and they will go back to being a 3-6 wins a year football team.

You can't tell me 1&only that the dozen plus times over the past decade they have been caught with their hand in the cookie jar is all by chance. I want to know what they are getting away with.

It's to the point now where I think they are literally making a mockery of the league seeing how far they can push things.

They do push the limits and have crossed the line before... the fines and punishments are there to prove that. I just think this was a total non issue last night... there are so many things that could play into that and I think it was merely a coincidence that there was an issue. It happens several times a year in stadiums across the NFL. Chip Kelly has said he has heard air traffic controllers on his before and that wasn't in NE. It happens... While Brady and Bill are pretty brazen in pushing the limits I don't think they are going to try something like that intentionally with all the scrutiny already surrounding them. But what the hell do I know.

I know this site was made by a Pats fan but every infraction is validated by a third party link. It is still kinda interesting to see how often teams bend or break the rules. Everyone is always trying to get the upperhand, not just the Patriots. I'm not even a Pats fan but I think a lot of the attention has to do with the 24 hour media and their brushes with the rules. Imagine if the 1990's Cowboys had the media coverage that exists today... I think it would be very similar. Everyone hates a winner.

"The home team is responsible for the installation and maintenance of that equipment. Every team's game day communications personnel are required to work with the NFL communications consultants to ensure wireless equipment is free and clear of interference and address any problems. Technological and stadium infrastructure issues of this type happen at many stadiums around the league and whenever there are issues of this nature, we do a thorough review."


Key word there home team..... If the patriots know who the comms are going to work for them or opposing teams like that its a huge huge huge advantage that i would call a form on cheating
