the 2014/2015 nfl thread v. R U RDY 4 SUM FOOTBAW?

seattle can't afford to start the game like that in the super bowl. we don't know yet if they'll be playing the patriots or the colts, but either way if they start out that slow they're not going to be facing a 16 point deficit.... they'll be facing a 28 point one.

they're not even fun to watch

its like watching a U.S. drone strike versus a middle eastern village with huts made of clay and straw.
 
^ high praise. they did display some devastating offense today :)

Breaking: A league source tells me the NFL is investigating the possibility the Patriots deflated footballs Sunday night. More to come.

I'm told at one point the officials took a ball out of play and weighed it. Should hear more tomorrow on this subject.

Shocker
it's not a shocker that people want to find as way to taint ne's victory.

the home team (which provides the footballs) are required to make the balls available for testing with a gauge. and if the patriots somehow managed to deflate balls and they were not tested, then why didn't it also help andrew luck?

yep - indy got crushed 7-45 because of a deflated football...

weaksauce.
Just bought my tickets to the Bills/Jags game in London in October! =D
how come the jags get to play in london so often?

Whether or not the cheating caused a team to win or not doesn't matter. It's illegal regardless.

Jags probably play in London so often because they suck and nobody comes to their home games anyway.

EDIT: Actually come to think of it I think the Jags have some kind of deal to play a home game in London every year for X amount of years similar to how the Bills had a deal to play a home game in Toronto.

I was wrong as fuck man. What can I say? Pats played a hell of a game. Should be a good superbowl
 
Its really pretty amazing. This whole town is depressed. Went to work out and there was like no one there.. less than an eighth of the number of people were there. I haven't seen anyone smiling all day.
 
^ green bay has a solid local following. it's understandable that people are subdued after a defeat like that.

gm, what is in that pic? i don't get it.

Think their owner has ties to the UK and would probably move there if the logistics werent so terrible. I also heard Jets/Bills play opening Thurs night which should be fun.

And Alisdair, with all their talent and success, why do the Pats always try to tarnish their history with this cheating nonsense. I understand your points on advantage for Luck and home team checking, but it still is "weaksauce" as you said.
 
^ you'd have to ask the patriots.

on this deflated football claim, some people already believe the patriots are guilty until proven innocent. that's a rather an unpatriotic stance, imo :)
