Our boys are actually innocent in all this crap. On to the Super Bowl! Let's beat Seattle!I don't think he's throwing Tom under the bus. He's just saying players have their preference. My thinking is the balls were inflated at the minimum level and they deflated during the game. Pretty simple.
He didn't have to say that. It surprised me that he said it to be honest. Maybe it's nothing but I suspect the media might start to put Brady more in the spotlight after this.
@Edwerderespn: Bill Belichick's denials are going to shift suspicion to Tom Brady.
@mortreport: After Belichick’s remarkable opening statement, clearly he has shifted the focus to Tom Brady
Media's already starting
I overreacted, and you're probably right Jack. But why do you guys think BB/Brady agreed to do this course of action (shifting the media frenzy of stupidity to Brady?)
Brian Dawkins already pinning it on Tom
Did Tom say, "lemme handle this?"
Watching paint dry is better than the SOU.This presser is better than the state of union address
Why should Belichick take the fall IF Brady is having the balls deflated?
I feel that if that happens or if Brady is singled out for punishment, other star QB's are going to go to bat for him. This isn't some run of the mill QB- this is one of the best QB's in NFL history getting singled out for something that is now sounding like an activity all QB's partake in to some extent- and I don't think the other QB's are liking this whole spectacle either.
I can't honestly answer that as I didn't watch the SOTU address, but did watch the BB presser.This presser is better than the state of union address
Curious: Doesn't it specify a $25,00 fine somewhere? Is that in the rule book? or the Field Operations Guide?
Yea he didn't throwTB under the bus, but he did leave it to him to offer another point of view and additional insight into how game day balls are handled. With that, TB has plenty of wiggle room in his response.
No question BB/TB collaborated on their positions and stories....and Kraft...and Stacy James.
