"....The Colts reportedly grew suspicious after linebacker D’Qwell Jackson intercepted Tom Brady late in the second quarter. A softer football is easier to throw and catch, especially in rainy conditions, as was the case Sunday night.

According to Newsday, Jackson gave the ball to a member of the Colts’ equipment staff, who notified coach Chuck Pagano, who then relayed a message to general manager Ryan Grigson in the press box. He contacted Mike Kensil, NFL director of football operations, who then told the on-field officials at halftime.

On the first play from scrimmage after the opening kickoff of the third quarter, the officials held up the game for a minute and ultimately switched out the game ball. Former NFL official Mike Carey, working the broadcast booth for CBS, surmised that “It looks like they still spotted the ball for a kicking ball, waiting for one of the ball guys to come down and give them a regular ball.”......"

'merica!
Northeastern liberals with a coach who dresses like a bum, cheats, and has a pretty boy QB versus a bunch of left coast, tree hugging, grunge, liberals. I don't like either team. I dislike NE more, so will be reluctantly rooting for the Seahawks..
How sad that you let petty politics dictate your life.

Another example of why NFL replacement refs weren't really that bad.

If 11 of 12 balls were under-inflated, how come the officials, who handle the ball before & after every play, not catch on - seemingly the only questionable time was the 1st play of the 2nd half?

Maybe the NFL needs to investigate the umpire, line judge, head linesman, etc.

Softball controversy is hilarious! Anyway, if Belichick if found to be cheating again, he should be suspended for at least a year. I'm sure the commish will make a decision, get chastised by the media, and then change his decision, saying he didn't have all the evidence when he made his original decision.

Btw, the Pats outscored the Colts 28-0 in the 2nd half. They performed better with properly inflated balls so why cheat?

Well, Nixon was still going to win in a landslide in '72 and Watergate was still broken into and the whole thing covered up. Beli-cheat is kinda like Nixon - brilliant yet disturbingly paranoid at the same time.

Had the balls been properly hardened for the 2nd half?
