Patriots Cheat in More Ways Than One

TarHeelFinFan · 05-23-2008, 11:02 AM

Looks like the Pats have also been placing players on injured reserve and then playing them in practice, in violation of league rules. They did this as a means to avoid the limits on the size of the practice squad/active roster.

What about the former coach of the Dolphins who admitted taping signals?

You guys make me laugh. You can't find enough to whine about when it comes to patriots but turn a blind eye to your own dirty laundry.

This is not mere rumor. Matt Walsh said it was going, the player and commisioner confirmed it, but Goodell said he won't add any more fines onto it. New England has been doing this.

i forget who it was, but some former offensive lineman for the pats even came out and confirmed this. talk about not giving a **** about the players on your team. the advantage is miniscule. and then taking a chance of that guy getting re-injured or hurt worse? why?

belicheat never ceases to amaze me.

Yeah, then the Fins had to pay a record high fine & forfeit their 1st rd draft pick...

BTW, I'm pretty sure we "stole" signals, as in, we figured them out from the sidelines. Big difference, especially when it comes to NFL rules.
