Deflate-Gate: Patriots Being Investigated For Deflated Footballs


Recommended Posts

Interesting. Bob Kravitz claims Patriots are now being investigated by NFL for supposedly using deflated balls while on offense to improve grip in heavy rains. Could potentially face fines and loss of draft picks.

Worth noting that Kravitz has some sort of affiliation with the Colts. Stay tuned.

Why is BB never suspended?  Sean Payton was booted for a year for destroying the integrity of the game.  Billy B.  has been wiping his ass with the integrity of the game for over a decade.

 

 

Didn't the NFL get rid of most of the spygate files?    I know for bountygate,  those f'ers were finding wadded up pieces of tissue paper with scribbling on it,  to  judge the Saints by.

Considering they manhandled the Colts, I don't think this mattered much. That being said, if this is true, it certainly helps to perpetuate the narrative that they are cheaters. It'll also cause me to assume that they're probably always doing something that they shouldn't be.

    • I will allow that sometimes the players sound smarter than I expected, vocabulary seems broad and seems like they know what the words mean when they use them. A lot of them.  Some others are perpetuating the cliche.    But our organizational IQ? Bryce Young is our starting QB and we have no one to challenge him. Low end of the bell curve. 
    • Though question the validity of this chart, it does remind me of concerns I have with our offense. I’m unsure whether it’s Canales doesn’t trust Bryce to execute his gameplan or if the route concepts and scheme is vanilla and unimaginative by design.  When watching other games, the receivers seem like they get more separation and aren’t as clustered together as ours. The Panthers WR, TE and RBs, more often than not, seem very close to each other and almost like their feet are stuck in a lower gear in and out of routes/off the LOS. Often times, unclear of their positioning when the first read isn’t there and where they should be positioned within the options of that particular route concept (e.g. Bryce is under duress and the play breaks down….where do you go? Pre-snap we thought it was man, it’s disguised well as zone). It’s almost like if the coaches don’t tell them, the players aren’t intelligent enough to figure this out on their own. Or are the players simply doing as told by the coaches in film study, practice and in-game, which means the coaching is inept. 
    • I think Young has totally killed the idea of drafting undersized QB's and hoping it works. Especially at such a high pick and putting all your cards on the table. He won't last in this league.
