Negative. It is NOT illegal in the NFL to steal hand signals or defensive signs. Here is one of hundreds of links explaining this. The NFL fined New England because they continued the filming of practices and games the season after the NFL prohibited it. (2007) The filming and stealing of signs during the years prior had no impact on New Englands success given the fact that all 32 teams did it as a standard practice. https://profootballtalk.nbcspo...e-legally-for-years/ | |||

It's in the link you posted. "What was different with Spygate is that teams had specifically been instructed not to videotape opposing teams’ signals on the sideline during the game, and the Patriots did it anyway. “It wasn’t getting signals, it was the process of videotaping and using electronic equipment during the game,” Dungy said of the difference between the Patriots and other teams" Stealing signs vs video of the signs to analyze and steal them. | |||

All good. And you are correct of course. I also think that what you wrote could pretty much apply to any historic event/occurance in life. ----------------------- You can't fall off the floor. | |||

Correct - that's what was in my post. They continued taping the season after the NFL said to stop. We are on the same page. | |||

Exactly. He's too classy to announce something like that right during the AFC/NFC championship games. It's funny that all these "credible" news sources jumped on it like it was facts even having him signed to a one day contract with the Patriots so he could retire as a Patriot. | |||

Me too. IIRC didn't Brady go to TB because they had a solid bunch of receivers? Brady was hamstrung by a diminished crew by the Rams game, particularly with Antonio Brown showing the world his ass. If TB can provide receivers next year, Brady would have good reason to hang in there. Set the controls for the heart of the Sun. | |||

That's a photoshopped image (if you don't know what that means, it means it's 100% fake). What's your point? -------------------- I like Sigs and HK's, and maybe Glocks | |||

Hes a great quarterback no doubt. The rule changes in the NFL favor quarterbacks and receivers. He never would have done so well in the seventies. Let all Men know thee, but no man know thee thoroughly: Men freely ford that see the shallows. Benjamin Franklin | |||

Correct Captain - but that was half a century ago.  | |||

He’s a great quarterback no doubt. In the early 1900’s, there were no helmets or face guards. No roughing the passer penalty either. He never would have done so well back then. Or for that matter, during the Mesozoic era there were dinosaurs. Fucking T-rex would run around and eat all the players. He never would have done so well during the Mesozoic era. So considering how Brady was aided by NFL rule changes as well as comets and mass extinctions, He really isn’t all that. | |||

Like it or not he was aided by the rule changes. And again he is a great quarterback among his peers, no one else with the same rule changes has done as well as him. If he played in the 70s he would have been on the same level as Bradshaw, Tarkenton and Staubach. Had he played with other cavemen I am sure he would have been the best caveman there ever was.

Because, at best, he was two. Still could have QB'd for the Seahawks though. ___________________________________________ Life Member NRA & Washington Arms Collectors Mistake not my current state of joshing gentle peevishness for the awesome and terrible majesty of the towering seas of ire that are themselves the milquetoast shallows fringing my vast oceans of wrath.

Not so fast…! 'These past two months I've realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands,' the champion quarterback announced on Twitter on Sunday. 'That time will come. But it's not now. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. They make it all possible. I'm coming back for my 23rd season in Tampa. Unfinished business LFG.' More at link…  | |||
