They may well be the best dynasty ever and Belicheat and Brady may go down as the best QB and coach ever, but they did cheat on more than one occasion, and people who care about the integrity of the league, and integrity in general, should care about that! You don’t care about the integrity of the game?
No! Everyone in the NFL does not cheat. Everyone in the NFL stretches the rules. The Patriots out and out cheat. There is a big difference. I agree though, they are smarter than everyone else. That bothers me. They are smarter than everyone else, have the best coach and the Goat and they cheated. That should bother fans of other teams.
We're not talking about playing by the rules here, we're talking about breaking them consistently. A huge difference.
I understand that but there are teams (most) that bend the rules in their favor. Tampering with coaches and FA is top of the list most teams do. Oakland should not complain because Todd Christian fumble the ball and advanced intentially into the endzone where one of his players recovered it for a TD. Oakland also used stickem to help them catch the ball. Can't do that anymore. The Saints had bounty gate, the Falcons pumped noise into the stadium, the Seahawks were accused of slicking up the balls, and the Commanders and the Cowboys were accused of manipulating the salary cap in 2010 (other owners thought they were cheating the system since there was not salary cap that year but to me they were just smarter than the other 30 teams and took a big risk for front loading their contracts that year. I still don't get how they were penalized in FA for being smarter than the other teams). I do say that the Pats does cheat sometimes but I think all teams do it at some point.
Who cares. The only fans who care about how many SB rings the Pats have are the Steelers.
Hey bud, you made it to the better site. Great seeing ya.
Of course they deflated footballs. They had been deflating footballs for years and just got caught vs the Ravens. Wonder why they fumbled less than any other team over the last 5 years? Because they are the Patriots and they are coached well, but also because they are holding Tommy’s special deflated footballs. Why would Belicheat and the Goat, both being the best of all time, feel they needed to steal a teams signals? Doesn’t it irk you, possibly the greatest coach and greatest QB of all time have consciously cheated to help them win. Someone should ask Belicheat, why?
is here for a reason... As for the fumbling stats, you even know how many fumbles the Pats have had? Or are you just regurgitating something you heard somewhere else? You need to actually look at the numbers, you know, do some research instead of just listening to message board conspiracy theories...
This game could be a passing of the torch if the Eagles defense can knock Brady out of the game but if the cant the Eagles will have to wait until next year when Carson Wentz is there to start their dynasty SB wins.
First of all, that accusation was proven false.
It is foolhardy not to acknowledge that every single team in the NFL (if not all of pro sports) cuts corners to get ahead. The only difference is New England is a marquee team that drives people insane so it gets blown out of proportion when they do it.
