Apparently, the Steelers notwithstanding, the headphones are all managed by the NFL not the individual teams.

It's worth the price of a ticket just to watch Mr Brady zip those passes.

The article I read pointed out that these phones were handed out to both teams by the NFL.
Tomlin, however, complains that the same thing happens every time they play the PATS here.

I read the interference is traced to infrastructure at Gillette together with weather conditions. Here is Belichick's comments:

Don't need to read it; I wouldn't expect an honest answer. If the Steelers "D" wasn't so young, they would have won easily.

Even with the NFL handed out the headsets, it would not be hard to mess with the systems, they are wireless and all you need to do is find the freq being used and add in some noise or jam it.

I don't know if the Pats are cheating or not, but for me there are too many allegations being brought against them, so something is not right. They are a very good team and need to take extra steps to show that they are not cheating.

Every team cheats one way or the other. Only the Patriots are more blatant and get caught.

TLR version. we had the same problem. we didn't whine about it. we practice for these situations so we were ready.


if I were Tomlin and just lost a game I easily should have won but lost due to bad coaching calls.... I'd probably blame the cheating patriots too.
No one in the media is questioning his game planning and It's a lot easier than looking in the mirror.


"IF" they did cheat and I do say "IF", piping in the Pats radio broadcast would be truly poetic.

struggling watching the bills-colts.
can't figure out who I want to lose.
I really love to watch Rex lose but the colts are probably a more serious risk.

Actually the media did criticize his game calls and clock management.
