My guess is that Brady likes a softer ball, and the Pats routinely inflate their balls to the minimum level, use hot air, or even under-inflate them and count on the refs not catching it. Other teams inflate their balls based on their own QBs preferences.
I suspect this has been common practice in the NFL and has been going on for a long time, but since the Colts decided to raise a stink about it, and it is the Pats, this is made into a major issue.
