Possibly, but we now that Tom Brady asks for his balls to be at exactly 12.5 PSI, the minimum pressure. What we don't know is, if the Colts balls were inflated at 13.5 or if they were inflated in the same room. If they were inflated or stored in different rooms, the air inside the balls could have been different at different temperatures and subject to different rates of decrease in pressure.
Teams have heaters near the benches. A few years back some teams were found to be warming their kicking footballs in front of one of these heaters because they had lost pressure. Do we know if the Colts balls were near a heat source? If they were, they may not have deflated as much as The Patriots balls. My point is that there is a lot of information we don't have and a lot of questions still to be answered. This is not a simple as many of the haters would like it to be. I guess you can keep playing gotcha if that's what floats your boat, but the NFL is going to take their time and do a thorough investigation to see if they can determine how the balls got deflated. But it seems that a lot of people already know how they got inflated. Maybe all of these people that hate The Patriots should just go tell the NFL investigators that they are wasting their time and should just interview them and they'll tell them that The Patriots inflated the balls.

Let the NFL supply the balls and then there is no problem.

The Patriots sent in Stealth Drones (SDs) covered with a secret stealth material Noseum and they deflated the balls. They are working on updating this for the Seahawks. The SDs will pick up Brady's passes and deliver them unseen to Patriot receivers.

Now if we can only get the stealth drones to block all Seattle punts we should have a real route.

Even causing the point after or field goal kicks to hook or slice would be good as well.

The NFL has tarnished its own shield by painting a Super Bowl participant as a cheater without clear evidence of cheating. As noted on Friday, some believe that former Commissioners (such as Paul Tagliabue) would have addressed complaints coming from teams like the Colts regarding under inflated footballs not by trying to lay a trap for the Patriots, but by letting the Patriots know that the league office is paying attention to the situation, and that if there’s any funny business happening it needs to stop, now. Instead, the league office opted to try to catch the Patriots red handed.

Patriots locker room attendant a 'person of interest' in Deflate-Gate saga - Newsday
A person of interest is being questioned in the NFL's investigation into what caused the deflated footballs. |

Sure wish the NFL would just conduct their investigation without these leaks which just encourage wild speculation among media types and fans.
Frankly, if they did not question the attendant that carried the balls to the field during the beginning of this, they are more incompetent than I would like to believe. Of course he would be a "person of interest" as would anyone who had even temporary possession of the balls. Jeez.

Simple Answer
The answer is simple and does not require a "mensa" meeting. "Just follow the money". You have multi millionares who rely on the outcome of a game to make or loose money. To believe they would not cheat for more money is pretty naive.
It is not a case as to whether someone cheated, it is who and how. Look back on New England cheating by "stealing" the other teams signals. This sets the standards they are willing to follow. Of course they cheated. And of course they should have very stiff consequences. They should not be able to play in the Superbowl. Letting them play is rewarding cheating. Enough said. |

What a thread. I'm the 150th poster on a thread about air in a football.
Folks, get a grip. Then get a life.
