This is the kind of stuff that happens to the visiting team in Gillette Stadium all the time. From the start of the game through the opening 14 minutes of the first quarter, the Steelers’ coaches’ headsets were receiving the Patriots Radio Network broadcast of the game. The broadcast was so loud that the Steelers coaches were unable to communicate, and the NFL rule is that if one team’s headsets are not working the other team is supposed to be forced to take their headsets off. It’s what the NFL calls the Equity Rule. Strangely enough, whenever an NFL representative proceeded to the New England sideline to shut down their headsets, the Steelers headsets cleared. Then as the representative walked away from the New England sideline, the Steelers’ headsets again started to receive the Patriots game broadcast.
BTW, the statement from the League says that the NFL provides the headsets, but in the SI slander article they quoted an unnamed source say that the Patriots provided them a headset that looked to be run over by a lawn mower. How can that be?
100% nfl frame job to keep the discussion going because they lost in court.

Yep. Discussed often on Sportscenter and on Mike and Mike this morning.Just woke up...so...has radio gate taken off?
dan patrick started today;s show with this. Said collinsworth did a disservice to the pats becase the nfl controls the headsets. They need to havethe pats take off the headsets if they found issues with the pitts headsets. Said patriots didnt do anything he believes but that is the story.
call me. I'll conduct an investigation for 5M. I could use the straight cash homey.

What complete and utter BS. You would think the NFL would have been on top of this if it was the case.
