Pats spied on Jets?

Try again, the Pats will still have a 1st-Round pick, as they traded last years for this years with the 49ers. The niners took Joe Staley, that's what makes this punishment even more bogus tbh

Yea plus they have 2 3rd rounders lol. so whatever they lose doesn't really matter, they will have 2 1st and a third or 1 1st 1 2nd and 2 3rd.

So your saying drunk, if you KNOW that the defense is in Cover 2 because of a signal and Tom Brady makes the adjustments to beat Cover 2 after the half it dosn't help them in anyway? thats bullshit. That gives them an advantage in game where the other team dosn't have that luxury of having a camera zoom in on signals maybe they try to read lips or figure these things out in the booth, but none of them have it on tape to review up close.

And for all we know, this is how they beat the Panthers and countless other teams

STRIP THE PATRIOTS FROM THERE RINGS!

Its a real shame. Just like steroids in baseball.. Why cant people just play fair now days?

Of course it would. Thats why EVERY team tries to pick up signals. Some teams, pay more attention to this than others. The Patriots being one. The Patriots are def not the only team that has been rumored to do this, and the only reason we know about this now, is because the Jets made SURE the media got ahold of this story.

This is the first year the NFL is really cracking down on this rule. Why? Cause the Patriots are the ONLY team that does it? Please. if it wasnt a league wide issue, the Patriots would have gotten smacked for it already.

Regardless, Bill fucked up, and broke the rules. And got his punishment for it. LOSING A FIRST ROUND PICK, is alot worse than not allowing him on the field for 1-4 weeks.

But saying that all the Patriots Dynasty is because of cheating, is stupidity. We won games before, and we'll win games now, and this time NE will be watched like a hawk by the NFL now.

Help me out here...how do we know other teams are stealing signals?

Do we have a reference or just stating something in general?

CM Drunk

Nope. Teams just have two to three different guys calling signals at once even IF there not playing the Patriots, just in case Bill Bellichick is watching.

I'll say this again, ONE first-round pick won't matter this year, they still have one, so it's just a normal draft at a higher position then they probably will be. I think the Jets should get the pick also

CM Drunk

And than we should get the Jets pick for calling Rechee Caldwell and having him come in to meet with Mangini to dicsuss the Patriot gameplan.

Why? Where does it say in the rules you can't do that? Cite your sources please. And again, Mangini is just taking after his mentor, which is, Do Anything to get an advantage, and no, I don't mean always "cheating" Belicheck has always been known to get every edge he can, so why blame Mangini for the same?
