Lets not even get into "the deflator" and brady's phone just happened to break. the whole thing is fishy.

Measuring the balls is quick, you stick the gauge in and get the reading. Re-inflating them to a specific PSI takes much more time. They measured the balls first before re-inflating any of them.
By the time they got to the Colts balls, the PSI was higher simply because they had the time to warm, and weren't exposed to the same conditions as the PATS balls when measured.
Also only four of the Colts balls were measured. The variance would have been different had they measured all 12 at the same time the PATS balls were measured. They had two different gauges, so they could have done both at the same time.
Of course the Colts balls were higher, they started out a half pound higher to begin with as they inflated them to 13 PSI vs 12.5 that the PATS did.
Physics states that at the temps the balls were exposed to, the AVG PSI should have been 11.32,, the AVG was 11.30.
The Colts balls had time to warm, so again based upon the laws of physics, they should have been closer to the original inflation.
Aside from physics, the score at halftime was 17-7 in favor of the PATS.
After the balls were re-inflated the PATS scored 28 more points to the Colts 0.
Brady's stats in the second half were perfect.
The PATS were by far the better team in this game. The Colts simply couldn't compete on either side of the ball.
The Colts player who intercepted a PATS ball in the first half admitted to this after this accusation was first brought about.
