I wouldn't count out John Harbaugh and/or the Ravens.
the more it may motivate the patriots
The NFL said the 11 balls were under inflated "about two pounds each".
Since 12.5 pounds is the minimum they can be inflated, that means the 11 balls were under inflated to "about" 10.5 pounds each.
The Patriots have yet to win a Super Bowl when they can't cheat.
Agreed. Harbaugh publicly denied tipping the Colts off and said if the kicking balls were soft in the divisional game it was due to the cold. But privately? Yep, I can definitely see him dropping a dime. He was infuriated after the game due to the ineligible receiver stunt Belichick pulled. I'm sure he wouldn't be above poisoning the well.
Plus, Harbaugh and the Ravens still think the Patriots cheated in the 2011 AFC Championship Game:

We're talking about cheating, taking an unfair advantage. Doesn't matter if the advantage mattered. Nixon was headed for a runaway victory at the polls back in the day. Then Watergate.
I'm more bothered by Brady's denial than by the stupid edge they were reaching for in inclimate weather.
So does Brady. They're great. They'd have been great without this. And Nixon would have won without a Watergate break in. It isn't always the guys who don't need an edge who look for it.

This is turning into a regular Agatha Christie epic.

See, I was hoping for more of a Hercule Poirot turn...and not the David Suchet Poirot, I'm talking a full blown, oddly fey Peter Ustinov Poirot....this just takes the wind out of my sails...or beneath my wings, or whatever.
don't you mean?

I hope carroll is thinking that
Only because you're assuming the Pats did something untoward.
we still have to deal with your wind

I am no longer upset about Ballghazi. I'm going to root for the Patriots to go get another asterisk!
:devil:
relax
as rodgers would say
belichick will be there at the super bowl
brady will be his quarterback
all those paying to see the game want it that way
maybe the seahawks will embarrass them
that is all you can hope for now
maybe they will lose a draft pick
maybe belichick will be suspended next year
you would then see how brady does without belichick
and
that would be interesting

What, eleven of 12 balls exclusively on one side of the field are underinflated for a quarterback who is on record with his preference for that very thing?
lain: Yeah, you could call that an assumption. Classy. :thumb:

Or none of those things will happen because the league won't find any evidence of anything, and reporters will continue to scream about "integrity," and the worst commissioner in the history of professional sports will have had a couple of weeks off from people noticing how terrible he is.
You mean except for the dead body that was kept in a trunk on the Patriots side of the field?
When your job is to make rich people richer and you do that you don't really have to worry about job security.

To quote Mr. Spock: I sympathize, TH. But I need evidence.
