Big Ben hasn't really impressed me since that motorcycle wreck..

There was no way the commissioner was showing his face in New England last night. For his own safety it was probably a good idea for him to stay in NY.

I could have sworn I heard Al Michaels call the NE coach "BeliTRICK" on last night's broadcast.

From cbssports.com:

The timing for Pittsburgh's headset issues on Thursday was something else, coming on the heels of a report last week about the Patriots trying to gain an advantage by any means necessary, including headset frequencies. It was almost funny, unless you're Mike Tomlin.

The Steelers coach was borderline irate during his postgame press conference, saying it's "always the case" in New England to deal with headset/connection issues.

Here's the full exchange between Tomlin and reporters at Gillette:

Mike there was a report that your radio went out?

“That's always the case.”

Here?

“Yes.”

So you're saying every time you play here you have rad—

“I said what I said.”

Mike what exactly happened, you just didn't have any communication?

“We were listening to the Patriots radio broadcast for the majority of the first half. On our headsets.”

It's easy to accuse the Patriots of cheating every time something goes wrong just as it's easy to give to credit to god when things go right. Sometimes you want something to be true so bad that you'll only accept that as the possible cause.

One minute Belichick is a genius the next he's such a bumbling idiot that he would jam radios during a time when everything he does is under a microscope?

The Pats aren't unbeatable. Teams beat them all the time. You want to win? quit spending so much time making excuses and beat them. Radio communication had zero to do with Gronk being wide open half the game.

Anyone else annoyed that they did all these interviews with the Patriots players asking them about the controversies in the past and they were like, "Oh, we rose about Spygate, we rose above Deflategate, and now we're back on track." So you're just saying, "Yup, even all those times we cheated, we're OK with that and we're back"? So weak. Wanted the Steelers to pound them, but you can't do that when you play pitch and catch with Gronk.

Can and did are two different things.
Meanwhile the conspiracy and excuse train just keep right on rolling.

@jemelehill: Explain this to me like I'm 5. Why does it keep happening in Gillette? #NoSarcasm https://t.co/EmZhOXGPot

FedEx has had it's share of mic issues too. But given the circumstances of course people are going to look at the Patriots with an accusing eye.

I do think at FedEx, we usually have the problems. We just aren't good cheaters...

Can we just start a Patriot scandal thread so it doesn't over run every NFL thread we have. I could give a flying fawk about the Pats or their supposed cheating. That is NFL chatter my mom talks about, save that shit for Star Magazine.

the NFL systems are a wireless signal of....some kind. most likely a digital signal. I do not know much about the technical end of such things BUT these types of signals can be subject to many types of....innocent interference. Not the least of which is other, potentially stronger radio type signals.
You can bank on the NFL having about 40 techies today trying to determine the source of the problem.......
BUT since it's BB and the Pats.......very shaky
