“And don’t forget, other teams were complaining about this before this incident.”

Details matter. None of the prior complaints involved balls that the Patriots had control over. What those examples illustrate is not evidence of Patriot cheating, but of Harbaugh and the Colts GMs being clueless. In effect, the Colts GM was claiming his own people were deflating footballs on behalf of the Patriots - and Harbaugh not understanding that the Kicking balls are kept in the refs custody at all times. In Harbaughs defense, despite irrationally blaming the Pats, there was actual hanky-panty going on with the kicking ball - by an NFL league official who was stealing game balls intended for charity.

Got the pressure differential calculated for the cited Minnesota game?

Your guy was caught cheating-get over it.

So, only the Patriot balls deflated and not the Colt balls?

Brady lied when he said that he couldn't tell any difference in the balls when every NFL QB could tell the difference immediately.

Blow your smoke somewhere else.
