Wow... get a life, man. No one cares about the cheating thing anymore but the people trying to justify the Patriots awesome season with something bogus. The only reason you post this question is because it is sure to get a response and you feel that when angry New England fans get pissed and tear into you it proves whatever point you are trying to make. It doesn't though... it's only fans defending their team, just like any other true sports fan would do... that's including yourself... that is if you are in fact a true sports fan. Here's a little something for you though... just so you know, FOR YEARS coaches have been trying to rid the league of the videotaping rule. It is a topic that has come up in the offseason for years with the coaches... I will be very interested though to see which coaches, if any, bring up the topic this offseason and still try to rid the league of the rule after what happened with the Patriots... should be mucho interesting. The reason they try to get rid of it is because everyone does it and also because it's more convenient then having someone hidden away in any other part of the stadium with the camera on zoom and more accurate then having the assistant coach taking notes about the other teams playcalling... two practices which serve the same purpose as what the Patriots did, but happen to be legal. The reason it hasn't been gotten rid of is because of the commissioner who enforced it, then it was cheating to do so because the technology of cameras weren't so advanced that you could get the same vantage point from any other part of the stadium then you could the sideline. Now you can... and it's a loophole everyone and their mother has jumped through. It's just Bill thought it was stupid and broke the rules... did he cheat? No. Because you can't cheat when you are allowed to do the same exact thing, just in another way. That might be a lot to digest, I know... but maybe your a little more enlightened now.

They've already slipped up against Baltimore and Philadelphia and still didn't lose. I'm not a Patriot fan at all but I hate to say it, they are just that good.... as for the cheating part, the NFL commissioner disciplined the Patriots and destroyed the evidence so whats happened is now a relic of the past. I have no doubt they cheated but they were caught in the very first game of the year. How else would you explain their success the rest of the year? There's no doubt Belichump is a classless individual but if that was our own respective team that was 13-0, we wouldn't care what anyone else said... I'm sure most Patriots fans up there could care less.

Cheated huh! One game. How do you account for the others? Video taping the other teams signals was low and in fact - Cheating. But that was one game. How much of an advantage do you think that gave New England during that one game. If you know anything about football and have ever played the game, you would know that there is way too much going on, particularly at that level, to worry so much about some signals that you may have wrong anyway. You have to play what is in front of you and not what you think someones signal might be saying.
New England is good. Good players, good game plan, and good coaching. Winning is a lot mental. Do you think Miami approaches each game with the belief that they are going to win? Not likely. I have no feeling one way or the other about New England. I am not a New England fan, but I am a sports fan. It is an interesting story to see if New England can go undefeated and win the Super Bowl. I hope they do. Everyone should lay off New England. Accept their greatness and enjoy possibly history in the making. One day you can tell your grand kids about it.

I think your dreaming if you think they are going to slip up at this point. As the end of the season gets closer the record is more apparent to them and they will prolly blow people out. havent you noticed that Billicheat cares more about records then anything else. He is an egomaniac. why do you think he leaves brady in the game late and still passing with a huge lead. Its about records and not about the team. he wants the undefeated record and would sacrifice anything for it.
As much as I am not a Pats fan, its hard not to say that this is one of the most awesome displays of offense ever witnessed. We will unfortunately have to deal with thier bandwagonning arrogant pompus fans as we have had to do since about 5 weeks into the season.
I bet not one of the current fans can remeber jim Plunkett or Bam Bam Cunningham or any other good players from back in the day when the Pats were horrible.

First of all, what basis do you have to expect them to lose?
Second, how has the camera gate thing helped them this year?
What the heck is that work aphilliated?
Since when did Tim Cowlishaw become the expert on the Patriots?
Yes, you're in fact right, Obviously without that 8 minutes of footage recorded during the first game of the season that was destroyed before anybody from the Patriots staff could see it they would have been 3-9 like the Jets.
Get your facts straight & grow up little boy.

Wait until all the Bostonians get ahold of this question. You are gonna be treated like the anti-christ. I personally do not see the Patriots losing this game. But I am waiting badly for them to slip-up. Im a Giants fan so it would really be the greatest thing in the world if the Patriots went 15-0 and then lost the last game of the season.

How they "cheated" has no effect on how they are winning games lol get over it, first of all every team does what they do, its just no one says anything about it because they aren't the patriots.......they will not lose another game until the superbowl and then they will lose to the vikings so yeah peterson will probably have 250 yards rushing against them because look at what baltimore did to them rushed that ball, what team is #1 in the league in rushing the vikings....the only 2 teams that are capable of beating the patriots are the cowboys because of their talent and the vikings because we match up best with them.....since both of those 2 teams are in the nfc, they won't lose until the superbowl and if any other team besides the cowboys or vikings get in the superbowl then yes they will go undefeated and win the superbowl.

The spygate happened in the first quarter of week one verse a team who sucks anyway - tired of hering that excuse because they dont want to rank the pats as one of the best ever, It didnt happen againist the Colts, Browns, Bills (twice), Chargers, Cowboys, Steelers or Redskins. I know that the Bills and Redskins wont make the playoffs but if they didnt play the pats they might have

NFL is watching the Pats like hawks, and so is everyone else .. it is done .. fines are paid, 1st round draft gone .. and there is just a team that is playing football better than their opponents, to this time .. will they lose? maybe, maybe not .. all depends on how the game ends now , dosen't it .. (but I do like the "Gator Girl") .. she makes te most sense

you are absolutely right. every real footaball fan knows they should be 0-13 right now, maybe 1-12 if they got lucky. football games have nothing to do with the talent on the field or coaching. its all about whether or not you taped the jets for 8 min of the first quarter in the first game of the year. great point.
