The situation is that they have the tape. Spin and reporting do not matter. They just have to look at the tape. If there are hand signals on it, the Pats are screwed.

“What really drew the interest of the Bengals is the fact they were shooting into the bench area," Pelissero said on The Aftermath. "I have spoken with several people familiar of what was in that tape, including one person who has seen that tape, and said it included video of the Bengals coaches making signals and then panning out into the field."

Yikes. If he was taping this stuff - then I ask why? Is it worth all the crap to tape Bengal signs? Jeez. Like we need more of this.

Holy ****.. this is completely made up. So much for Journalistic integrity.

Why would they be screwed????

The policy is that taping can be done from a covered portion of the stadium and cannot be used by the videotaping team during the particular game. Once again, there is nothing to stop someone posing as a fan in the stands from using a cellphone to do it. The key is that it just cannot be shared with team personnel during that particular game to gain an advantage.

What exactly would be the issue??????

Why? Is there a rule against it? And who uses hand signals when you have helmet mics?

If they are obtaining the tape using a false excuse and they are investigating it for that reason, it apparently is not OK. If it was fine, why confiscate the tape? I don’t know what happened and some of the reporting may be flat out wrong. But I am not ready to buy all the talk about a misunderstanding yet either.

Does any team use hand signals still?

I had a feeling we were missing a good pre-superbowl scandal this year. This should help greatly, thank you bengals!

And by the way, what are they going to do? Take away draft picks? We can’t draft anyway so take that NFL!

 

[shmessy]

Now we know WHY the Bengals are 1-12.

They are the only team in the NFL not using helmet mics.

This is how bad things have gotten. The team has sunk so low that they have to resort to cheating again.

Lol all time great post.

*This would include the Bengals person who reported it & any “investigator” who didn’t laugh in that person’s face. There’s absolutely nothing to be learned in ‘19 by pointing a camera at an NFL sideline. Record your

out, anyone in the stadium can.
How do people not know this?

As long as we don't lose a first!! Why the hell do we need to cheat to beat Cincinnati??? Lol

Waiting for AB to do an iSpy post on IG.

that’s ok since he’ll apologize for it the next day.

On the bright side, the last time they got falsely accused of crap like this, they decided to wreck the league....except for that pesky Super Bowl business, but never mind that!

[shmessy]

I have a sinking feeling that this video is going to be a Rorschach test and everyone is going to see what they want in it.
