The radio frequency issue may absolutely blow this wide open and cause the Pats serious problems. The Pats have a big following on FR and the defense of them has been very weak. Why, because most of them know Billicek(sp) is a cheater. He’s not the only one.
The radio frequency problem would likely mean that the Pats were caught monitoring the Jets communication frequencies. Each team is assigned a range in which they may operate, the ranges do not overlap. The Patriots may have been dialing through frequencies outside their assigned band to find what the Jets were using and then listen into their communications.
This would be an extraordinary gross rules violation. This would be sufficient grounds for Goodell to rule that New England forfeit’s game 1. The filming on the sidelines would not be sufficient to cause such a major ruling imo. I can never remember a team forfeiting a game because of cheating. Anyone remember if it’s happened before?
