Since they got off with a wrist slap

[blindzebra]

I wonder if NFL security is going to be really looking at every game?

Will they be walking the sidelines?

Will they be personally checking, rechecking and monitoring all communication equipment before, during and after the game?

Yes, another thread about this. Great idea.

I don't know, but if I'm playing in Foxboro I have my offensive coordinator communicating with a cell phone, not the Cheatriots radio system.

Yet you felt the need to not only read it but post in it.

Hardly a wrist slap.

I agree. It was a stiff penalty. It was lacking a suspension of Belichek, but both fines and the loss of draft picks were right on in my opinion. Bill's fines is 5 times that of Wade Wilson's fine. It is regrettable that Bill was not suspended, but that does not lessen the other penalties. It was more than I thought they would get when the story first broke. I figured it would be a cheap team fine only and loss of a second day pick.

I am interested to see how well the Pats play at the end of this season after teams are able to completely change all of their signals. The Patriots might really struggle on offense on the road.

Not to mention all the people watching everything the pats do. that can get to you after a while. The tension, etc. It could have an effect.
