What a Tuel Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) "The interruptor" they call him that because he cuts in when someone is talking. Has nothing to do with radio signals. Then there's also "the spy", but that's only because he likes to play the game "I Spy" all the time. Nothing to do with spying on opposing team activities.

Dan Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Really blow their minds and run all cards from the sideline.... No mic's required... Hell, run plays in like HS with the players rotating in...Script the first 15 plays so you don't have to call them in. But call them in anyway... The wrong plays! Then confirm everyone's suspicions when the cheaters are lining up to defend the wrong play. Anyone that thinks that team doesn't cheat is in serious denial and purposefully ignoring the reality of everything that has come out of that organization for 15 years.

dulles Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 The team's communication team does installs and preventative maintenance in tandem with the league's tech team which has ultimate control. Any communication issues are thoroughly reviewed by the league. The bigger point is ..... if issues happen enough times, and is obviously suspicious to just the Pats, the league, ie opposing owners, would have put an end to any supposed Patriots shenanigans. The problem is that the other 31 teams are also independently competing against each other. Although one team may feel stung by "misfortune" at the time, the 30 remaining teams are busy working on their next opponent. They are too busy to worry about what just happened to a division rival who is also competing for limited playoff spots. Hence, it is very difficult to get critical mass for any type of action. The NFL, always protecting the shield, is also reticent to look too hard because they never want to hurt the bottom line. A loss to the Patriots is one thing. A loss financially is on a completely different level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mob16151 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) How many times will the fire alarm go off at the team hotel the night before the game? That was probably just a mass hole. Edited September 26, 2016 by mob16151 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 (edited) That was probably just a mass hole. Doesn't mean it won't happen again. That was also the game the bills were winning and then coughed up 14 points in 5ish minutes to lose the game. Apparently fire alarms do work.

BillnutinHouston Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Sideline communications changed this year and are now using VOIP (voice over internet protocol) operating on an exclusive frequency licensed from the FCC. Allegedly this will render interference far less likely because no other products should be operating on that frequency and the communications will be encrypted. So we'll see. But the smart money is still on having a backup plan in place. Operative words in bold. Let's remember, abiding by the rules SHOULD also be a given. If you consciously identify and execute ways of bending the rules, you really don't worry about what should happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
