Belicheat, Brady claim ignorance; NFL Statement Post #434

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

He actually appears worried about this. Probably feels he cannot be found guilty again.

He always looks like he's mad. The closest I have ever seen him look ok with life was on Jimmy's A FOOTBALL LIFE.

 

[ErikWilliamsHeadSlap]

Maybe he suspects Brady and is worried about the repercussions.

There is nothing going on within the Patriots organization that Belichick doesn't know about....He knows the rules inside out and if Air was let out of Footballs to benefit his quarterback, he knew about it and gave his blessing to do it, so if anyone believes otherwise, then you're not living in reality...

Proof?

I don't know what all the hate is on the PAT's Best Org last 10-12 years Best coach best QB. Why hate them? Their system is fantastic in a league built to have parity theres no stopping them. Loss of assistant no worries. Loss of players no Worries, Little Bill just showed that big Bill couldn't do it without him. Not the other way around don't want to hear about Bill having a great QB in Brady and Big Bill not having one.He was picked in the 7th round. Not that I love the Pats but give them their credit.

Watch out for speaking the truth around here

Ignorance is no excuse, right Mr. Goodell?

 

[SultanOfSix]

Because flaunting the rules and getting effectively a slap on the wrist each time is like repetitively telling a kid "don't do it again" as punishment. It's not going to stop them from doing it. In fact, it's simply going to tell them that they can continue to do it without repercussions.

This probably kills his chances at the Hall of Fame, for one thing.

Not to hard to figure out....because they have been caught cheating before and it looks like they have been caught again. But please continue on with your rant that has nothing to do with the topic at hand.

 

[KB1122]

And coming out and lying to the public is only going to make it worse.

Why do people keep saying this is just about Brady? Why don't people admit that this could have been a technique the Patriots were employing to assist gripping the ball in rainy conditions, preventing fumbling and possible TOs?

The same thing happened with Spygate. These guys were communicating with their QB via wireless frequencies after the 15 second cut-off period. It was a clear indication to Brady what adjustments needed to be made REAL-TIME in the game. It wasn't just taping practices from the sidelines for well over 7 plus years, which was also illegal.

It's no coincidence that when Spectre raised the whole issue, Goodell made a small gesture of implementing random wireless communication checks at games during the 2008 season right after the whole cover-up. Why would they even be talking about wireless frequencies if this wasn't an issue.

These guys are flat-out cheaters.

 

[hornitosmonster]

He pretty much threw Brady under the bus. That team is so tainted. Kraft and Belicheat can go to hell knowing they ran the dirtiest organization ever.

Hope Seattle drops a 50-0 butt kicking on them.

That's just trying to tie this to some random comment of Brady though. It's all speculation based on a random statement in 2011. RIght now, nobody knows who ordered the deflation of balls, but it's absurd to think it happened just because of Brady, last minute. The reality is Brady has thrown balls that are according to spec. This was 11 out of 12 balls in rainy conditions.

They probably did it, because they didn't want to fumble during rainy conditions and get a better grip on balls. That's a clear advantage. Turnovers can drastically impact a game.

They cheated, point blank. This idea about just Brady is obfuscation by the league and whoever has an interest in sweeping it under the rug.

Maybe maybe not...you asked a question...I gave why people (not all people) are tying it to brady...When the man has said in the past that he likes deflated footballs...it tends to make people think he wanted it done this time as well...and it is logically to think so.

This was raised way after the fact, It's as if the NFL is pushing this idea, with special interests telling us now how various QBs like different balls with different pressure, as if they are the only one's that handle the balls in a game.

They did the same thing with Spygate, with Jimmy Johnson even coming out and saying he tried it, as if it was the same thing. First of all, Jimmy Johnson had no access to the tapes to make any comparison, and second JJ claimed it made no difference, yet BB was doing it for over 7 years. So much for JJ's analogy.

It also tries to push all the other accusations under the rug. Flat-out cover up.

I just don't see the weapons in Seattle that will allow them to put up big numbers on the Pats D.
