Around the Nfl week 1

Hell, the Steelers headsets are mysteriously playing the Patriots radio broadcast...lol

What is it with these fucking guys.

Off the Steelers website:

"The broadcast was so loud that the Steelers coaches were unable to communicate, and the NFL rule is that if one team’s headsets are not working the other team is supposed to be forced to take their headsets off. It’s what the NFL calls the Equity Rule. Strangely enough, whenever an NFL representative proceeded to the New England sideline to shut down their headsets, the Steelers headsets cleared. Then as the representative walked away from the New England sideline, the Steelers’ headsets again started to receive the Patriots game broadcast"

funny yesterday i believe it was DP who brought up teams past accusations against the pats using radio jammers at gillette.

I remember Parcells being pissed at Walsh because 'mysteriously' their sideline communications never worked at Candlestick. With the modern technological advancements its funny that teams are allowed to get away with this. Bellitrix will push the boundaries as far as you let him.

And its not like they didn't work at all, they played the Patriots broadcast which is an extra little jab in itself.

if true, the pats can go fuck themselves.

its a billion dollar industry and they cant get the most secure non-tamper headsets?

i read an article where it laid how it easy it would be for a common fan to bring a jammer or mess with the system from the stands.

just play football. stop the petty "catch me if you can" and "rub it in your face" BS.

really tired of the Pats and unexplained coincidences favoring them.

eveyr home team should fuck with their communications ... but im sure the pats probably bring a road audio team with them.

Whatever…so predictable because of the cheating label.
Tomlin gets owned because his defense and play calling sucks and he blames it on his headset and some communication shenanigans (that are controlled by the league).
Whatever….that will be the scapegoat every time someone loses to New England.
I suppose the headset made Scobee miss too.

The again, there was one of these in the area during the game.

That doesnt mean the pats cant jam or mess with the signal. it seems like anyone with $150 bucks to spend can mess with the signal.

Can and did are two different things.
Meanwhile the conspiracy and excuse train just keep right on rolling.

@jemelehill: Explain this to me like I'm 5. Why does it keep happening in Gillette? #NoSarcasm https://t.co/EmZhOXGPot

FedEx has had it's share of mic issues too. But given the circumstances of course people are going to look at the Patriots with an accusing eye.

Can we just start a Patriot scandal thread so it doesn't over run every NFL thread we have. I could give a flying fawk about the Pats or their supposed cheating. That is NFL chatter my mom talks about, save that shit for Star Magazine.

the NFL systems are a wireless signal of....some kind. most likely a digital signal. I do not know much about the technical end of such things BUT these types of signals can be subject to many types of....innocent interference. Not the least of which is other, potentially stronger radio type signals.
You can bank on the NFL having about 40 techies today trying to determine the source of the problem.......
BUT since it's BB and the Pats.......very shaky
