Reporter accidentally walks off with Kyle Shanahan's backpack

...which, incidentally, contained the Falcons game plan for this Sunday.

He returned it a few hours later "after realizing the mistake".

The reporter in question, ironically enough, is employed by a San Francisco newspaper.

But hey, if Sunday's game is a blowout win for the Patriots, weeeellll...

LOL! In all likelihood just an innocent mistake, but it always makes you wonder when something like this happens. Especially when the Pats are involved.

It's absolutely an innocent mistake.

After nearly 30 minutes of searching and frantic phone calls, Spander returned with Shanahan’s bag. The coach was undeniably relieved.

“That would have been bad,” he said in a text message to USA TODAY Sports.

Spander, 78, is covering his 40th Super Bowl. He had no idea he had taken the wrong bag until contacted by a fellow writer.

“I’ve screwed up before, but I’ve never picked up the wrong bag,” Spander told USA TODAY Sports. “And there’s no way I’d have a game plan.”

But given the circumstances, the history and the reputation of the Patriots, it's also funny as hell.

And if Sunday's game is a blowout, I guarantee you there'll be Falcon fans pointing to this story.

The Pats don't even need to cheat to win this one. Everybody points to the game sealing pick in their win over the Seahawks in '14 but the real story of that game is Dan Quinn's defense getting completely destroyed by the Pats and allowing them to come back from down two scores in the 4th to win it, even with all the insane talent the Hawks had on D then. 

Pats are going to score at will on the Falcons D as they have a better offense now than they did against that Hawks D then and Belichick is going to outcoach and outprepare Quinn and Shanahan.

False. Wilson completed 12 passes all game. The Seahawks ran lynch to death that game because they got comfortable with the lead.
