No. The only revelation was the deal Brady didn't take (which you guys have broken down as not as selfless an act as it might first appear).
They interviewed the Krafts, Brady (nothing on Deflategate from him, only on the 2016 season, so pretty blah), the two NFLPA lawyers, then a bunch of...
You misunderstand. "Direct" as in he himself said it directly to the press, as opposed to the indirect, second-party manner Glazer's claim came about. It's hearsay vs. straight from the horse's mouth.
Saying he has "no inside knowledge of the New England situation" IS the denial against...
See, this is what I'm talking about. You start applying your own speculation (McDaniels in "desperation mode") to the story to support your suppositions. What is McDaniels' recourse here? He directly denied the story given by Glazer's anonymous source. Why is two-party hearsay more credible than...
Context is important with the Glazer quote. Look at the blurb via PFT again:
Both quotes "per Glazer", so how did Glazer get it? This wasn't a press conference, and he didn't have a one-on-one with McDaniels. Higher in the same article:
So McDaniels allegedly said it at a staff meeting. Since...
That's not true. Look at the rule from the Bylaws again:
There's no language whatsoever about signals. It references "videotape machines", but that rule can't possibly mean no videotaping can occur, else it's in conflict with all the passages in the Policy Manual giving very detailed...
I've heard about 4 or 5 interviews the author's done. Painful to listen to, as it's one conspiracy theory stacked up on top of another. He twists every possible obstacle to his agenda.
Pats with better win percentage post-Spygate than pre?
"Well, maybe they're still cheating."
What about...
I think this is consistent with how the commissioner handled Spygate. I know some people were angry the Patriots didn't try to fight the charges (not to mention the misinformation) harder, but I think they too were ordered not to talk about it, under penalty of further punishment.
This is the money quote of the thread. In the end, it doesn't matter to these folks who the Pats draft; just that they do following some arbitrary collective wisdom that likely doesn't reflect the collective wisdom of the teams doing the actual picking. In order for Bequette to be a better...
It will have the unfortunate effect of making more people think they're more knowledgeable about the game than they actually are. It will show more of the picture, but still won't tell who missed assignments or ran wrong routes, etc. In other words, PFF can still blame all Revis miscues on the...
Will be interesting to see with certainty on what percentage of plays Revis holds. Then again, with this kind of access, I bet we can point out a hold by somebody on every play.
As long as we're parsing words in this thread, we should distinguish between "handing guys jobs" and "handing guys roster spots". Of course the guys drafted 1-4 pretty much get a roster spot; it's a few months after they're drafted, and so you're still judging them more on potential than...
This is exactly what I believe.
I think Mangini was just doing a tit-for-tat: the Pats had his guy stop taping, so he was gonna have the Pats guy stop taping. I think he saw it as part of the inherently understood gamesmanship between teams and coaches.
Like you said, the whole thing became...
