Schefter trying to turn nothing into a big story... That's his job. I bet the they find the Patriots balls were deflated but have no proof of Belichick knowing about it and they fine the team like $25k, end of story.

it explains why only 1 ball, the jackson-intercepted ball was deflated by 2 psi & the others were only slightly deflated

LOL, so now its the Colts fault the Pats cheated again.

And where did this theory originate, oh yeah, Boston.

Logic dictates that it is a reasonable explanation given that the only ball deflated significantly was in the possession of a ball boy for the Colts. Given the preparation process outlined by Belichik, the other balls were in an expected range.

Do I need to mention that after given balls properly inflated the Pats scored 4 straight TDs? So where is the advantage?

It's a really stupid theory being advanced by Patriots defenders,

 

The Ravens noticed it in the game before as well but it didn't become a story till after the Colts game.

 

The Colts said the Ravens noticed it. Harbaugh says they didn't.

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By MechaZain · Posted

      I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.

      So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
