Football Did the Patriots "cheat" yesterday to win? - Page 3

**Renegade** · 01-11-2015, 10:31 AM

It appears as if Harbaugh feels the Touchdown pass Edelman was illegal and is saying the Patriots cheated. I don't see anything wrong with this. How does CP feel about?

I think the officials saying "Don't cover (Vereen)" was a clue for the Ravens.

Harbaugh was butthurt that they were changing their lineup of players without allowing him a chance to sub in different defenders

Why would they need to substitute at that point, realize what's going on and make the defender who was covering the in-eligible player cover the eligible guy.

They just didn't get it

That's not really what he's arguing. He's saying that the officials should have notified him and allowed him to make the proper substitutions. Which they should have.

But were they actually changing the players on the field? If so the ravens should be able to substitute, if they were just swapping eligibility the ravens should just shut up

He's not mad at the play they just didn't give the Ravens enough time to adjust. Like the sub rule.

dgaf, by the way

Tom Brady was a badass yesterday. That throw to Lafell was a beauty. Love his passion. Shit, even Joe Flacco was a badass.

For the record, if Manning made that pass at the end (the Flacco pick) he would've been labeled a HUGE choker.

I thought Flacco was awesome yesterday. I hate him.

On plays like that, just like tackle eligible plays, the officials are supposed to announce when a player is eligible or not. Its the reason Vereen himself had to tell the officials that he was ineligible. The officials in turn should have told Baltimore.

The first time I played Madden on XBL was 2005. I get ready to play some dude who chooses the Eagles.

Every play: Shotgun Tight 4 WR, and McNabb throws a corner route.

Unguardable.

After the third person in a row I played who used the same team and offense, I got the message. Never again.

This

A whiny Harbaugh... I'm shocked. **** him

**SAUTO** · 01-11-2015, 11:05 AM

"it's a substitution or trick kind of play"

Harbaugh STILL hasn't quite figured out what was going on.
