This one seems much harder to believe, but maybe this might have something to do with the radio frequency problems we've been hearing about.
WERE PATS WIRING DEFENSIVE PLAYERS, TOO?
The situation regarding the New England Patriots and the allegations/proof that they have stolen defensive signals is unofficially getting weirder.
The signal stealing flap is relevant only to defensive signals, since all offensive calls are made by radio.
But we're now aware of suspicions/rumors regarding efforts by the Pats to get a leg up as to opposing offenses. Specifically, we're told that it's believed that, during the 2006 season, the Patriots were putting microphones on defensive linemen in order to capture the offensive line calls and the quarterback audibles.
Then, the audio and the video of the game would be matched up, and the defensive players would be given the code at halftime.
