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.

      That's certainly what we hope but c'mon... stating it as fact when he's never played a down of NFL football?

      What?!?!?! Chark's 1,000 yard season was 4 years before he played for us and he only had 525 yards in 15 games as our #1 WR.  Dude has 3,100 yards in 7 seasons, he's the literal definition of a JAG and you think he is better than half our current WR room? T-Mac is literally already better than Chark was at his peak, which again, was years before he ever even put on a Panthers uniform, and there is a real argument to be made that XL and Coker were both better as rookies than Chark was for us in his one season here.

      Im glad we're starting low. It's nonsensical to put us at 28 IMHO based on objective things IMHO (I think 21-24) is far more appropriate but whatever. Washington was at the bottom last year FWIW.  In 2003, Sports Illustrated said our best chance to win the division was to transfer to the ACC. In 2015, everyone wrote us off as a team that snuck into the playoffs with a losing record in 2014 and lost our best WR in TC (Kelvin Benjamin). All these videos are fodder for conversation, but this prediction has no more validity than saying the Panthers are making the SB bc we're starting the season against the Jaguars again. If Bryce plays like he did down the stretch we will end up the season just fine. This roster is much better than it has been the last 2 seasons. No one knows who any season will ultimately end up, but this team is finally being built in the right way, and the idea that this roster can't compete this year is as insane as being it was when we were gaslit in 2023 that we were a rookie QB from winning the division with that roster.
