Damn, Boston fans are just the worst.



So....first, the science behind the original article was just bad. Many articles discussed that before the 2015 data was available.

Second, the Patriots 2015 fumble rate is basically the same as it was over the past many years. The fumble rate that the bad article said was pretty much statistically impossible.

And the NFL punished the Patriots for deflation, and started randomly testing balls across the NFL to ensure that inflation levels were legal.

And from all this you suggest (1) that one year of data is insufficient, and (2) the Patriots are probably still cheating. Somehow...

Ok. Go with that.
