Here is my source.

So... it's a few angry average citizens' words against the word of Dr. Daniel Marlow, a well known Physics Professor from Princeton University that argues the potential advantage, likelihood and overall affect from the weather the Patriots' would've had with this scandal.
Sorry, you guys should stick to spy-gate. It's almost 2 decades old at this point, but hey it's better than nothing.

In a report commissioned by the National Football League and released Wednesday, a noted engineering firm and a Princeton physics professor concluded that an equation known as the Ideal Gas Law could not explain why the Patriots footballs were at such low pressures when they were measured at halftime of New England’s postseason victory over the Indianapolis Colts.
The report punctured a key assertion of some physicists around the country who believed that the temperature difference between the locker room, where the balls were inflated, and the playing field could provide an innocent explanation for the pressure drop. However, the balls were taken back to the locker room at halftime, where they warmed up again before the measurement, the report said. Therefore, the report concluded, “the reduction in pressure of the Patriots’ game balls cannot be explained completely by basic scientific principles
When contacted by phone, the Princeton physics professor, Daniel R. Marlow, said he could not discuss the topic.

Another science guy:
Quote:
Timothy J. Gay, an experimental physicist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln who happens to know Bill Belichick, the Patriots’ longtime coach, said the team could no longer hide behind the Ideal Gas Law.
“It sounds like they’ve got a guilty party,” Gay said. Because the Patriots’ game balls were taken back to the locker room before the pressure was measured, he said, the gas law “doesn’t account for” the pressure drop.

Yes... 45 to 7
The Colts offense could've been playing with 15 men on the field and still would've got smoked that game. It's really time to just let these things go. Seriously, get over it.

Just so we are clear, the outcome of the game has absolutely nothing to do with a team cheating, or trying to cheat. I really have to question why people keep bringing the score up. It makes absolutely no sense. A team, or person can cheat, and lose or win. it doesn't take away the fact that they cheated, per the NFL.
