well no the NCAA solutions requires an actual competent Replay Official at the game. And also Firing Riveron would help the Officiating problems as well My BIGGEST issue with the replay. Is it is put in place to get the call RIGHT. Too often after Replay they STILL GET IT WRONG. so if that is the Case GET RID OF REPLAY all together

Suspend their Cheating Coach and Owner for a Year

again not defending the Patriots. Showing the loophole in the rules

there are reports out there from “sources” that have seen the video that there is video of the signals on Bengals Sideline yep caught again yep and not one thing in their from a credentialed video person from Press Box. See the ambiguity that Patriots are playing in here. Pats Fans reaction to be in another cheating scandal https://www.patsfans.com/new-england-patriots/messageboard/threads/wtf-is-this-pats-accused-of-videotaping-cinci.1150837/page-5

well this does change my thinking here. Still the rule is ambiguous and will be destroyed ala 2015 after league says nothing there. Protect the Shield Goodell strikes again

according to Rules Nope. They likely were cheating but you are allowed to video out of the press box. NFL really needs to clean their rules up

Just having some fun.

not defending them. Pointing out that the NFL rules on this situation is well not defined. A lot of ambiguity in their rules

On the Sidelines. again NOTHING in the rule book about from the Pressbox where the advance Scouts are allowed to sit two weeks before the game. that is how the rule reads. You cannot video from certain areas. Nothing in the rules about the advance scouts from the press box. that was the SpyGate problem they were videoing from the sideline with a high powered mic and piping it into the offensive booth

https://www.espn.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=sando_mike&id=3017542 there is one another https://www.google.com/amp/s/profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/02/08/tony-dungy-on-stealing-signals-its-been-done-legally-for-years/amp/

would this Not be considered Cheating?

Already been solved I guess. Again just pointing out what I am reading in the rules. says can’t tape from Stands, Sidelines, etc. says nothing about Press Box. also says nothing about what they can or cannot Do in the two week scout window

so Much to do about nothing. Sorry Zac try something else to deflect from your horrible season.

I get the History. But I am not seeing a definitive answer in rule book that talks to the two week window they are allowed in the Press Box NFL Rules allow them in the press box. Where they chose to sit is on them

Teams are allowed in the Press Box by Rule to scout teams you are facing two weeks out. I bet they were in Bills Pressbox Sunday too

according to all the articles written during SpyGate. Where it crossed the line is when it was being done during the active game and audio piped into the offensive Box. there is nothing in the rules saying while in the two weeks before a game you cannot video the sidelines from the pressbox. I think this is much to do about nothing.

sorry I don’t think this one is cheating. I have watched Years of tape on teams showing play, down and distance and any signals from Sidelines doing it in a game you are actively participating in (spygate) is a different story. from what I read about the rules that is ONLY in games you are currently playing in.

Easy Opposing teams. Pull their credentials from Press Boxes you DONT have to give them access

yeah either way I don’t think this game is ever in doubt. Bills cruise to a 2 score win

How. Teams film scout every team. They take the scoreboard showing down and distance and then the play. It is a Bengals issue if their are not using the in helmet commo system

I get it. I am just looking at it as a pure matchup perspective. I have watched Every Steeler game as well. Not impressed at all.

Honest Question. Is this really against the Rules? Doing it during the game (SpyGate) is one thing. Doing it a week before at another game you are not in is NORMAL behavior IMO

I really am thinking it is going to be a relatively easy game. 20-9 Bills. Steelers Defense is opportunistic but if they don’t get turnovers they are not that great. Their Offense is TRASH. Don’t turn it over or allow a big ST play and this game should be Bills easy. Bills ARE the Better team.

Bills 20 Steelers 9 the game was never in doubt. Bills are the better team here. no I am with you. Bills are a better football team and this game should be a Bills win by two scores. their Defense isn’t that great when they are not getting their opportunistic turnovers. And their Offense really is trash.

change up your Signals Zac. Too easy. on a side note zac why are you sending signals from the sideline anyway and not using the helmet communication?
