My personal experience/opinion is that throwing a wet ball would be easier with a soft (i.e. deflated) ball as opposed to a hard (or over-inflated) ball. No idea if the forecast for Sunday's game called for rain, but I believe Brady when he says he picks out the footballs that "feel" the best -- I wouldn't want anyone tampering with them after the fact.
In my first high school game (as QB), the ball felt noticeably deflated. No idea if it was in fact deflated -- I mentioned it to the ref and he dismissed it pretty quickly /coolstorybro
