Pats tape shows 8 minutes of Bengals sideline footage

It sounds like the Patriots were using this "Do your job" video series as a front to film signals. They could edit the footage into something they can put online to make it credible, but then also keep that sideline footage for themselves.

Brilliant.

Right up till you get caught, of course.

The guy who got caught filming doesn't sound like the sharpest knife in the drawer. He was wearing Boston Bruins gear at the time.

"Sure, I'm filming the sidelines while wearing Boston sports gear, but I'm sure nobody will think that's suspicious" :)

He also reportedly sat down right in front of somebody who works for the Bengals. They could see the viewfinder over his shoulder.

It’s Brilliant and they’ll get away with it. The NFL can’t prove intent unless more teams come forward with claims the Pats asked for video crew access as well.

There needs to be an extremely harsh punishment. Draft picks, lifetime bans.

its straight up cheating to get an edge. 

It definitely start from the owner. So the NFL needs to punish the team harshly.  Multiple 1st rounders and something with the salary cap. Bc Belichick and Brady can leave anytime to anywhere and would not be affected. Punish Kraft

    • Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.
    • NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing. 
    • The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
