    One could argue that if the Pats were taping since 2000, their whole dynasty is tarnished. There reputation has always been a team that played solid defense and an offense that was just good enough to get it done (this year excluded). Tom Brady was about to be crowned the greatest QB of all time in some circles.

    Maybe Tom Brady was that good because he's been knowing what coverage he was facing all the time. Maybe that defense played so solid because they had seen the walkthrough already.

    Seems like the NFL will be the next sport to visit capital hill. They're even threatening to reopen the antitrust suit concerning the NFLNetwork.

    Only way they have beaten the Dolphins lately. Word on the street is they didnt cheat in that 21-0 Fin beatdown last year.

    According to a source.

    a simple solution would be for teams to just change their signals as the year goes on.

    like EVERY SINGLE OTHER SPORT does.

    or allow the linebacker to talk to the d coordinator, like the qb.

    I think they are talking about starting that next year. I'm sure we'll know more after the owner's meetings.
