What's up with the Patriots? They have been on a historic run of success over the past decade but at the same time it's always going to be clouded due to their penchant for cheating. Why even risk it considering no teams trust them in the first place? As smart as Belichick is it seems like he's never had enough faith in his players to be able to win themselves. While the balls didn't make a difference in a blowout win what if the game was won by a field goal? You can make a case that the deflated balls would have made a difference on say a key Gronkoswki grab that could have been aided by the easier to grab balls. Even though it didn't matter on this day it could have and that's what the Patriots were trying to ensure by deflating them. Such a dishonorable team.
