Pats Cheating Comfirmed
According to the report, the league sources say the NFL determined 11 of the 12 footballs used by the Patriots were under-inflated by two pounds per square inch each. Per NFL rules, footballs are required to be inflated between 12.5 and 13.5 PSI and weigh between 14 and 15 ounces.

And the Colts should be on a flight to Glendale. Either that or have the Colts and Ravens play to determine who gets to take the Cheatriots' place.

Low pressure is more noticeable when external high pressure is applied. A big dude like a linebacker falling on the ball is going to notice pressure differences that a referee will not from normal handling. Just picking it up, holding it, and setting it down again likely doesn't put enough pressure on it to be noticeable. Think about it. The minimum regulation PSI is 12.5, and it was under inflated by 2. Do you normally exert 10+ PSI when handling objects? It's not like the refs give it a squeeze test every time they touch the ball. On the other hand, players do. When the fall on it. When it hits the hands from pass/kick. When it's kicked. These are the times when low pressure would be noticed. Not just holding it.

Screw that. Hit 'em where it really hurts. Force them to hire back Pioli and Cassel.

The Patriots ran over the Colts. Destroyed them. The NFL could wipe the passing stats from the game and the Patriots still beat them handily. |

I don't think it matters one bit. The Patriots destroyed the Colts at the line of scrimmage and couldn't stop Blount. Whether or not the ball was deflated to make it easier to catch and throw is irrelevant.

If the Pats win the SB they should have to get a trophy of a deflated football instead of the Lombardi, that's a fair punishment.

If there were 11 deflated footballs used each and every time the Patriots had the ball offensively, and the Colts footballs weren't deflated, why didn't the referees take notice each time they touched the ball?

I dont think that matters though. The message to send is not that cheating is okay as long as you didnt need it in the end.
