Patriots were "In our Huddle"

They may not still be taping but does anyone believe they aren't still using very effective methods of cheating and just havent been caught? 

 

I dont care about deflating footballs, that's minor stuff. But under the surface, there is much more. This report is interesting but someone needs to dig up some solid dirt on these guys and nail them once and for all. I bet it would end up being one of the worst and most protracted scandals in modern sports starting in 2000 and continuing over 15 years. The "Patriot Way."

Oh, I've long believed that what we actually know about the Patriots cheating is only the tip of the iceberg.

Unless New England spygate made Kasay kick the ball out of bounds,  Its irrelevant.  If New England starts that drive from there 20 we win.

I don't agree.  New England easily sliced through our defense in the 4th qtr, scoring 17 points.  The Patriots would have had a minute or so to go about 45 yards to get in Vinateri's range.  Brady could easily have done that.  At most, it might have been a longer field goal, but if its inside the 35, then I think AV hits it.  In the 2013 game on our home field, Brady got the ball at his own 20 with slightly less time left than he had in the Superbowl and still got the ball in fg range against a defense that imo was better than our Superbowl defense.  We were just fortunate that they needed a td instead of a fg. 

 

Irt the superbowl, I remember praying that we would use up more time on that last drive, and score with just a few seconds left on the clock.  I felt that if there were more than 45 seconds left, we were in a lot of trouble.

Are people seriously blaming John Kasay, one of the classiest players this organization has ever had, for our Super Bowl loss? Jesus Christ.

You know another one of the classiest players this organization has ever had? Jake Delhomme.

Think about how much unfair blame he's gotten. More than anyone in franchise history.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
