I think BB also gave a dig at Colts...that maybe they overinflated balls so they would show up as normal at halftime . Knowing they would be tested. Maybe irsay even sacrificed colts chance by insisting higher psi for Lucks balls
Agree. Obviously this is conjecture, but I believe the entire situation was orchestrated by the Ravens (after hearing Jay Glazer's report). Harbaugh was completely humiliated and exposed by his lack of preparation and knowledge of the rules after his absurd deception comments following the Baltimore game. We all remember Tom Brady saying that the coach needs to learn the rule book. It seems that every comment I have read from current and past quarterback indicates that manipulation of the ball is common and expected. Harbaugh probably knew that Brady prefers his footballs on the lower end of the PSI scale whereas other quarterbacks, such as Rodgers, push the limit to make the balls over-inflated. Harbaugh then tipped off the Colts who of course then made sure that their footballs were inflated strictly within the acceptable limits since they knew that the footballs would be confiscated at halftime.
