WE HAVE A REBUTTAL

Just as a thought exercise, what would your defense be, then, if this happened in the Divisional Round game against Baltimore?

Holy fucking jesus christ, that point has been made by everyone in the fucking solar system multiple times already this week, usually accompanied by the line, "The Patriots could have used <insert_hilarious_other_kind_of_ball>balls and they would have won by 30 points."

Browns fan here. Can we just talk about the draft instead?

What a (2 psi under regulation) load of hot air.

I disagree. They appear to be good at getting caught.

Am I the only one who thinks that it looks like Goodell pissed his pants in that picture?

When Bill Bellichick heard the news of this report earlier tonight, he promptly fired the team's equipment manager for failing to do his fucking job right by not under-inflating that 12th goddamned football.

With Chris Matthews right there, Bostick should have know it'd be a Hard Ball to catch.

It leads to the totally valid question of "what else are they doing?"

Good news is that the UPD and Tallahassee PD are investigating, so the criminals will be brought swiftly to justice.

Maybe he can post annoying spam on kinja about making $4 million from home with this one weird trick

Honestly, just get rid of the MVP, stick with offensive and defensive players of the year. MVP is so completely slanted to favor QBs - most teams are going to be significantly worse without their starters. Or give QBs their own aware, like the Cy Young.

They also had Phil Simms at quarterback, not a melting pot of mediocrity consisting of Fitzpatrick, Mallet, Savage and Keenum. Quaterback is the most important position, but that doesn't mean a NFL-history best performance at another position should be overlooked

As a Giants fan let me just say that this is the best article I've ever seen on Deadspin. The Giants have done horribly this season, but the singular ray of light is that after Cruz's injury we've somehow managed to come up with one of the best (if not the best, let's face it if Eli could throw a fucking pass these…
