Even Goodell’s Supporters Are Baffled

Even Goodell’s Supporters Are Baffled

Ruh roh Rog. This is still very tempered from the anonymous owners, but still it’s clear that they’re wondering why every time there’s a controversy the commish’s handling of it makes it ten times worse.

My biggest problem is the “we all voted to give him absolute power” take. YEah you all accepted that, so does that give him a free pass to make the process completely unfair? To plant stories in the press specifically to make the the players look bad? Everyone just has to accept that now?

I think when the players and owners accepted giving the commish this kind of power they thought he’d look at the facts and make a fair ruling. That’s not even close to what has happened time and again.

It’s amazing that all we hear from the league office is “integrity” yet every action they have taken speaks to their complete lack of integrity. It has taken a while but even the owners are waking up.

Travaris Cadet – All 10 runs and 38 receptions from 2014 – YouTube

Some good conversation last night on twitter about the Patriots running backs and I’m excited to see how the Pats will use Cadet. I believe between the uncertainty at the position along with Blount’s Week 1 suspension it makes sense to keep all five, not counting Develin of course though I have him making it too. 

I think we see a combination of White/Cadet/Bolden early in the season in the passing down role, with Cadet emerging by the end of the season where he’s the lead guy and they sprinkle White in for a chance of pace. 

Of course, Cadet has to get healthy first and we haven’t seen him in a couple weeks.

Peyton Manning feared Patriots bugging visitors’ locker room

Peyton Manning feared Patriots bugging visitors’ locker room

Yup, it’s time for every rumor of nefarious Patriots activity to come out, isn’t it?This is what Deflategate is really about – not so much deflated footballs, but the perception that the Patriots bend every rule and take every advantage possible to help them win. I’ve heard all the rumors, that QB communications would mysteriously drop out, that the tarp would be taken off early back when the Gillette Stadium surface was still grass among others, and now we can add bugging the locker room.

We are so inside the rest of the NFL’s heads, and now, unfortunately, we’re paying the price, whether any of it is true or not. And really, it doesn’t even need to be true to be effective and this is a prime example. Because instead of focusing on the game, even Peyton Manning has to spend time worrying that his conversations might not be private. That’s winning the battle before it’s fought.

So as much as the Tom Brady haters want to pretend all the vitriol is based on an imperceptible amount of ball pressure that had no effect on the outcome of a game, it’s about all these rumors over the years. Spygate had nothing to do with Brady, but it’s still thrown in our face about him being a “cheater”.

Deflategate was finally something guys like Mike Kensil thought they had caught the Patriots red-handed with. It didn’t matter how inconsequential and unprovable it was. The second they thought they “had” the Patriots, there was no going back. They were going to make sure Belichick was nailed to the wall for it. 

That’s where Deflategate failed in the eyes of those who wanted it to be real so badly, they really wanted it to be pinned on Belichick and that’s why you still hear echoes of that from sources through the media. They see Belichick as the mastermind but in Deflategate they had to settle for Brady.

And it looks like even that is going to backfire on them.

How fun it is to be the big bad wolf of the NFL.

I can’t help but feel like we the fans had something to do with this. It was reported this morning that the Patriots in fact asked ESPN for a retraction and I know a certain Patriots blogger who is followed by the Patriots. Not sure there’s ever been a more galvanized sports team and fan group. Proud to be a part of it.

The bigger problem is this kind of stuff only feeds the trolls who act like the Patriots have cheated over and over again for the past 15 years.
