“It’s a league problem. It’s wherever,” said Panthers coach Ron Rivera. “It will go out right in the middle and not just here or in New England or in San Francisco, but it could go out in a critical time.”

Said Texans coach Bill O’Brien: “It happened in Dallas, it happens here, it happens wherever I’ve been.”

Said Eagles coach Chip Kelly: “I’ve heard a lot of things on the headsets, I think there’s a lot of frequency issues some places. I’ve heard air traffic control and a lot of different things.”

Said Cowboys coach Jason Garrett: “That’s certainly been a part of having to deal with game day situations, throughout my career as a player and a coach.”

Said Jets coach Todd Bowles: “It’s happened a bunch of other places. There have been times when the headsets have gone out, it wasn’t New England, I can’t remember the places we’ve had it, but we’ve had some of those headset problems.”

Said Lions coach Jim Caldwell: “It happens sometimes, sometimes there are quirks and technology is not always perfect. Things pop up. The problem is if you’re not prepared for it. If you’re not prepared for it, you’re going to have some issues.”

All those coaches just had their next infraction fine doubled and ESPN will be sure to write disparaging articles about all of them.

The NFL will file an injunction to have this article removed from the internet.

Let me give you a generic response from idiotic fans of other teams so that you don't waste your time pointing that article out to them:

"Just because other teams cheat, doesn't mean that the Patriots weren't cheating AGAIN against the Steelers. Deflect, deflect, deflect -- it's what the Cheatriots and their lowlife scumbag fans do."

The thing is Belichick prepares for this. He practices it. In practice, he'll suddenly surprise his coaching staff and tell them to remove their headsets. That's why he was not freaking out on the sidelines like Tomlin. He goes to his continency plan like nothing happened and keeps on coaching. That's part of what makes him so good. He is so prepared and coaches for situations. He'll soak the field, he'll mess with the ball in practice. It's just such a shame that the media and much of the rest of the league don't appreciate him. He should be praised. Instead, it's excuses and crying and making things up. Never once has he ever used an excuse for a loss. He takes accountability and credits the opponent. Yet, he's the bad guy. Such a shame, but it's great for us as he's clearly in everyone else's head.

Sean Peyton also said the same in another article. And Tony Dungy of all people.

You know what, Im glad this whole thing came about because its inspired all these coaches to come out and defend the Patriots against one of the key allegations in that ESPN OTL report. Remember how apparently teams across the league feared coming to Foxboro because they always experienced shady communication and electronic issues? Well here's that allegation being outright debunked by half the league. Coaches are publically putting their name out there rather than all of the "unnamed sources" that were in the article.
