What “signals” are they videotaping? Are they videotaping the mouths of the play callers to give to their professional lip readers? Are NFL teams still using hand signals for plays/formations?

So that's how they do it!!! Claim that they are filming a "scout", all the while getting the video of the coming opponent's signals. Sure they turned over the footage to the NFL, the footage that they wanted the NFL to review to clear them of wrong doing. Wonder where the hidden camera was located? Hmmmm...

The funny thing is, in order to see the lie all the way through, they are going to actually produce a feature about a scout.  Sounds absolutely riveting.  Lol.

Why would the Pats be shooting a feature at a Browns Bengals game? AKA why would the glory franchise of the NFL be shooting an innocent feature at a rust belt game? When the Pats are on a losing streak and the Bengals are the next opponent. When they have a history of this behavior and an MO seen in the quoted post. 

 

This stinks to high heaven. And the nervous guy on ESPN trying to excuse it. Ugh. If you believe them after everything, I don't know what to tell you.

 

We win a couple games and we get yelled at for having an easy schedule. They get caught cheating repeatedly and they get all the glory and the excuses, even from millions of opposing fans. When is this nightmare going to end? When will people wake up? Why is everyone so afraid of the truth?

and who says there has to be tape?  Media has access to wifi, they are dumping the video on the cloud, heck it could be consumed almost real time back at the Pats location.

 

it's no different than the people with Ring or NEST doorbells...

They’ve been working on this documentary for like 12 years now! When it’s finally released should be a real doozy

It absolutely mysrifies me the media and so many in the public (including some "Bills fans") give such reverential treatment to Bellicheat and Brady.  They are proven cheating scumbags plain and simple - should be derided and ostracized like Lance Armstrong and Barry Bonds - instead they are worshipped.  The media actually uses "Patriot** Way" to convey something positive!  I feel like I live in some kind of bizarro world sometimes.

Obviously I, or any of us, don't know what is on that tape.  What makes me interested in this is that the Bengals are said to have the original copy of the tape and turned it over to the NFL.  Now, to me anyway, it only stands to reason that the Bengals who confiscated the original tape would have watched it and know what is exactly on there. 

 

If there was nothing obvious to question, would they have turned it over to the NFL?  Even if they were required to do that, why be so short with the statement basically saying there is no statement and that the NFL is investigating?  They could have dismissed it all together saying it is no big deal.  I'm wondering if they know what is on the tape is more than what is being reported on and therefore they are being very careful in what they are saying until the NFL says something.

And why didn’t they clear it with the Bengals and the league before the game? I’m sure it was just an innocent oversight.

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. 

 

Quote

NFL's no-video rule

The "Game Operations Manual" states that "no video recording devices of any kind are permitted to be in use in the coaches' booth, on the field, or in the locker room during the game." The manual states that "all video shooting locations must be enclosed on all sides with a roof overhead." NFL security officials confiscated a camera and videotape from a New England video assistant on the Patriots' sideline when it was suspected he was recording the Jets' defensive signals. Taping any signals is prohibited.

Scouts funnel these observations to their teams' offensive coaching staffs, hoping to link the opponents' defensive signals to specific blitzes, fronts and coverages.

It's all legal under NFL rules, with one stipulation: absolutely no video recordings allowed.
