    OT: Meaning of...Cheating

    In all due respect, I do not think you understand the multiple definition of the word. Cheating at cards and cheating at football are the same, it was an example not part of the definition. Ill tell you what, submit your arguement to one of the college english departments and post what they...

    OT: Meaning of...Cheating

    Point 1, it is doable. NFL players arent brilliant, for the most part, so signals are simpler than you think. I read a piece about ten years ago about it. A team doing this looks for two common signals associated with the Coverage and pressure alignmets, that is to say the common zone...

    OT: Meaning of...Cheating

    it not entirely true. there are roughly eleven franchises rumored right now to specifically look for signals in some way or other from the sidelines (jets are 1 of em too). throughout history many many teams have done this, I mean Al davis really did bug locker rooms and sidelines, but really BB...

    OT: Meaning of...Cheating

    Well lets look at the dictionary definition: the first definition concurs with what you argue, the second states clearly enough: v. intr. To act dishonestly; practice fraud. To violate rules deliberately, as in a game: was accused of cheating at c...

    OT: Meaning of...Cheating

    Cheating is breaking the rules to intentionally get an advantage. The Pats Knew what they were doing. They were told to stop on multiple occasions they knew the rules, There was in fact a memo specifically outlining this and calls between the league and the Pats when they were previously...

    Pats scouting McFadden

    That would bring your run game on par with your passing game:eek:

    Why PATs will win BIG!

    Bens stats are favorably comparable to Brady's stats in his fourth year starting, that is to say a year Brady won a super bowl in: 4th Season__BEN R____Brady *Situation___QBRat____QBRat *Total:______102.9____86.5 *1st Quarter__91.9 ____79.4 *2nd Quarter__97.9____109.7 *3rd...

    OT: Meaning of...Cheating

    What they did was seriously against the rules because the rule is set up to block teams from accessing sideline tapes while the games are going on. The Pats Staff was breaking down 2 quarters of signals and using the blitz/zone coverage cues to set the O up for premium plays late in the game...

    Interesting read about Big Ben

    yeah, he is still better than brady for those stats in that time period if you start brady's stat count at 01. i have a thread about that elsewhere on this site.

    More ben/brady comparisons

    Ok, Im not quite insane enough to try to compare BR right now to TB, No qb is even in his league this season, But I do want to bring up the overall comparisons to him, and some facts that often get overlooked. Let me also say I had to argue for years against the morons who for the first few...

    Best of all time debate

    there should be no debate about this team being the best so far this decade. I'd have no arguement about that at all.

    Best of all time debate

    Very good arguements so far all the way around. I would like to add one more question to the mix: If this Patriot Dynasty was solidified with veteran players from outside the organization much of which was in fact through F/A and players cut from previous teams due to Salary cap issues, hasnt...

    Best of all time debate

    Im not disputing who is the champ, or that stats mean more than victories, im saying that when discussing the best of all time or even in a given year, you have to take into consideration the amount of talent on a team combined with their performance and results. Stats, over the course of a...

    Best of all time debate

    The geezers I was refering to was the local sports writers who were debating it in a bar a year or so back. Dr Z from SI agrees with em. The jets beat the steelers this year, the jets are not a superior team to the steelers. The steelers exposed some flaws in the colts game, but no scout in...

    Best of all time debate

    total positional/play by play performace grade outs for the colts were off the charts, steelers graded out as the fifth best team, though till this year that class of five teams at the top were all good enough to have been the top team any other year.

    Best of all time debate

    First of all, I respect the Pats and think they are clearly the best team in the league this year, however even if they go 19-0, one cannot objectively judge their team as the best of all time or even really close to that. I know saying this on a Pats messageboard will likely not find anyone...

    ESPN changing the facts to help the story

    As a steeler fan, I agree wholeheartedly. it was agreat advantage when we were built for Bettis and the power run game first. And the D was built around the bigger, slower CB's Now we have speedy quick recievers, a fast shifty RB, and a fast and quick secondary. it kills the team's performance...

    What do you expect the Steelers to throw at us Sunday?

    On offense, a lot of TE up the middle stuff to losen up the safeties and take advantage of your linebackers speed. Parker on a lot of outside stuff. On D, expect the safeties to let recievers make some over the middle catches early and try to get the huge hits on them. Taylor will cover moss...

    OT: How do the Steelers have the #1 D in the ENTIRE league??

    Teams the steelers have played average 317 yards per game offensively overall, playing the steelers they average 231 yards. their average offesive rank is 17th in the league, exactly equal to NE pats opponants. They have held ten of their opps under their average offense, and six of...

    Bulletin Board Material Begins with this...

    Smith is a big talker, but he also is our biggest hitter in the secondary and probably the best cover safety we have. Troy is quicker and can play more positions, but smith is the big playmaker now. He's young, and makes a mistake here and there, but overall that spleen condition that put clark...
