Too lazy to make a meme, so I'll just write it out:

Says team is innocent, still suspends own employees.

It's also ironic that he posts pictures about people that can't stop talking about his team, yet when we try and the subject is completely off the patriots, he comes in out of left field and makes it about the patriots.

More importantly is how better grip of a ball can reduce fumbles. Turnovers are the biggest indicator of how a game is going to turn out, and I could see a swing in score by 3-14 points based on 1 or two extra fumbles a game. It's all speculation at this point of course, however it makes for an interesting exercise. Also, what if this has been happening since the rules in Ball Handling changed (a rule change largely due to Brady lobbying for it).

2 home games were won by 7 points or less in 2014
4 home games were won by 7 points or less in 2013
2 home games were won by 7 points or less in 2012
3 home games were won by 7 points or less in 2011

Meaning, a significant number of games in past seasons are questionable if you accept the concept that better grip decreases the chances of fumbles. And, how would this have affected their placement in the playoffs, etc?

This is all speculation of course, yet it's kind of fun speculation to think about. We can't vacate wins and strip Super Bowl trophies. As much as I'd love to see the Seahawks win another Super Bowl, not this way. Still, casting doubt on the legitimacy of Brady's legacy is interesting in its own way. I am not a Patriots or Brady hater...I respect much of what they've done. Still, they aren't the shining white knights everyone makes them out to be.
I suppose, if you wanted just for arguments sake, they might not have been a 1 or 2 seed all those seasons then, maybe a 3 ....or even 4 but, one thing is for certain, it didn't go on in the second half of the AFCCG or the Superbowl.

And I don't recall you saying Richard Sherman should put his "big boy pants" on & own up to the PED's
