At least w/UCONN football I have yet to awaken with Deflated Balls.
There is a sabateur in the midst and everyone blames the Patriots.11 of 12 balls deflated. Really NE? Really?
Particularly in light of Spygate....the cheating again really hurts the legacy....
And they woulda beat Indy with nerf footballs....
Stupid.
All this is, is another attempt by the media to generate some controversy before the big event. I am sure that in the annals of NFL football this has been done before. It reminds me of the famous pine tar incident with George Brett. George was just doing something that everyone else did but he got caught. I am sure that other QB's have done the same thing including the suddenly indignant Troy Aikman.11 of 12 balls deflated. Really NE? Really?

Spoken like a true Pats fan!
Isn't everyone???
Ladies and Gentleman, we have a winner! It is ALL about the guys in the trenches, and this is the worst Offensive Line the Patriots have had since the mid 1990's. We would all look like crap if we were taking the beating that Brady is taking right now.
The only way this team makes the playoffs is because the other 3 teams in that division are from mediocre to woeful. That 7-point struggle versus Oakland last week was no mirage... the Patriots are in serious trouble.
