Spagnuolo claims Patriots knew Eagles' signals in Super Bowl XXXIX

All three teams changed their signals in their pre-SB walkthroughs, and also implemented several brand new plays never shown before that the Patriots magically knew what they were before the snap. Players, coaches, front office members from all three teams (and mot of whom are proven classy people who wouldn't just be salty about losing) have alluded to that fact. 

The Eagles prepared a gameplan specifically using the dime defense. They rarely used the dime defense before that game, and there is literally no way the Pats could have predicted it. Not only did they predict it, they knew exactly what to do and how to exploit it.

There's game planning, and there is signal theft.

If they added new plays and changed their snaps,.. then they just got beaten plain and simple. 

Just like in sales where I am, when you have some that run away doing much better than others, then the losers claim it’s “a numbers game” or “they are getting fed better leads”

just sour grapes. Play better, get better coaches.

I figure somewhere down the road, there'll be a big expose' where either an investigation or a longtime member of the Patriots organization will reveal the full depth of the Patriots cheating.

It'll probably be a long time coming, but I won't be the least bit surprised if it happens.

And if that info does get out, it'll likely be the single biggest scandal in sports history.

Matt Walsh knows A LOT more than he said back in 2008. And he's been so silent you could hear a pin drop since then. I'm 95% sure he not only knows a lot more but has evidence of it, and will go public with it in the future.

Gee, and Rex Ryan put similar defenses against Brady and beat them in the AFC Championship.

it wasn’t stolen signals, the eagles just suck. 

Losers always make excuses.

Does everybody they've beaten just suck?

There's a pattern here. It's also no accident that opponents audio equipment in Gillette Stadium has an odd tendency to malfunction at crucial times.

You can try to down play it all you want, but knowing another teams signals is HUGE. It's very difficult to just change on the fly. Comparing this to your Earnhardt example is retarded as fug.

Obviously you don’t know what you are talking about—

Ok so I’m stupid for disagreeing with you goobers about being totally idiotic and ridiculous about a team winning because of signals?

Grow up buttercup

Another example: in the 2001 Super Bowl, the Rams pre-game walkthrough - which the Pats recorded - showed something the Pats could have not possibly predicted. Marshall Faulk, then the most electrifying player in the game, lined up as a kick returner.

In his entire career, he had only returned one kickoff in his entire career. There's no way they could have seen it coming, let alone planned for it.

What did the Pats do when he lined up to return in the second half? Kick a perfectly placed corner kickoff that Faulk was unable properly return.

The Rams had also installed brand-new red zone plays they had never ran before. Keep in mind that, at the time, Mike Martz was probably the best and most ingenious offensive coordinator in the league. His playbook was varied and unpredictable.

Guess how the Pats did against these new plays? They lined up perfectly and stopped them, knowing exactly who to cover. Our 2003 team made similar complaints.

Martz was heavily pressured to side with the league, and did so reluctantly. Now he's come out and said that he didn't say much of what the league said he did, and that something was fishy about the game.

I thought that was Atlanta, can you keep yourself straight?

and yes they have been better at winning than everyone else.

So an entire season of tape to watch and tendencies didn’t help?

i believe some teams just scheme better and make in game changes better than others.

make adjustments, make them early and often— failure to adapt is the devil.

You can't fugging gameplan for plays you've never seen before. You can (and will) succeed against some, but not all. And you sure as hell won't know what is happening on all of them.

What makes Luke Kuechly great is he can predict offenses. He does this without cheating.

What made Peyton Manning great was he could predict defense. He did this without cheating.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
