I can believe Belichick knew nothing. I cannot believe Brady did not know he was holding/throwing balls that were deflated more than they were before halftime.
Multiple QBs have said they wouldn't have been able to tell either in the middle of a game. Normally, probably. But in the middle of a championship game in crappy weather, the ball pressure is the last thing on their mind. "If it has laces on it, I'll throw it."

Quote from ASG :
As for evidence, they have it. 11 out of 12 on the Pats side and 0 on the Colts side.
This does not mean anything at all.

Also:

and

But none of that changes that they won fairly on Sunday.
Both of these "articles" have been thoroughly torn apart.

Patriots Baby!! How can you not root for someone with perfect balls!

I see you are refusing to answer.

Are you a PEDHawks fan?

Regardless of what you think about the Seahawks and Patriots, the game was exactly what you want in a Super Bowl (unless your team is in). You want a tight/close game to the end otherwise it's boring. With the college national championship playoff game, OSU just took off and it made the game just not fun to watch. Sure, if you're a buckeye, it's the greatest four quarters of football in a long time.

Doesn't really mean much either way.

Iagree

I'm not quite ready to call it the best Super Bowl I've ever watched, but I'm also not quite ready to say it wasn't either.

There was one not too many years back that I remember being an incredible game to watch but without going back and figuring out which one it was and then recalling what made it so good I can't really make a comparison. But in any case this was a great Super Bowl to watch if you didn't care much who won.

What part of TOM BRADYS BALLS ARE PERFECT [youtube.com] would not give you evidence - or proof - that I am a Die Hard Pats Fan.

What's a Pedhawk? Is this a new product by the wonderful Mr. Kraft? If it's anything like Bradys Balls, I can't wait to try it!! Yummy! I'm salivating at the mouth just thinking about it!

So all you can talk about is Brady's balls. Obsessed, much?

Or especially if you did care and were rooting for the Pats/against the Hawks.

The knife is already in, might as well twist it a little:


Of the 109 passes thrown from the opponent's 1-yard line during the 267 games of the NFL's 2014 season, the Super Bowl throw was the only one that was intercepted.

But that's pretty much always the case if your own team wins. It doesn't matter if they sucked the whole game and won on a lucky break, it is still fun when your team wins.

I don't know. All I can really say about that is, I'm sure most steroid users would swear up and down they never used steroids. And perhaps those that do admit to it are more believable because of that.

But that's also making a logical leap.

They especially would not have been able to tell if the balls were only slightly under inflated as the latest report suggests.

It's pretty good evidence that something was up.

Point me where. The main reasons that brought me to the "there's something to this" side was those articles, the 11 out of 12 thing and the leaked report of the video of the Pats ballboy taking the balls away from the refs to a secluded area.

No, it's not.

Them being equal pressure throughout the game would mean something was up. Them being within the legal range just means they could have inflated them more towards the max, and pats more towards the minimum.
