I wouldn't trust the information without seeing the data to back it up. Room temp at 1st measurement, weather conditions, temp of room at halftime and timing of measurement for each ball etc...
The timing release is curious as the OP points out and I wouldn't put it past Goodell to cook these numbers to release them ahead of the NFL appeal in early feb.
This 100x over. The only way the numbers they release say anything at all is if they record the starting PSI, temperature on the field, the temperature in the locker room, and how long each individual ball was indoors prior to measurement.
Even then, I wouldn't trust the NFL to release accurate numbers.
