[The Patriots] -- still trying to distance itself from the 2007 Spygate scandal -- had to deal with a new report that said a video crew working for the team filmed the Cincinnati Bengals sideline during Sunday's game. The latest allegations came to light when Bengals coach Zac Taylor, whose team plays New England on Sunday, confirmed that the league was investigating the crew's activities.

Bengals are 1-12. How could the Pats possibly benefit from this?! We’re they trying to steal recipes or something?

If that’s the job of this film crew, then I would assume they do their job every week of the season.

Yeah and 0bama didn’t spy on the Trump campaign. The management of the Patriots are power hungry and obsessed with keeping it. Such obsession makes for bad bedfellows. I feel sorry for the players because they are very talented and don’t deserve this scandal.

Sounds like another PR scandal to rile up the Pats haters. Like the WWE,the NFL is no longer a sport but entertainment.

The NFL has specific rules about filming.

I don't think it was the patriots people taping. I think it was an advance scout BEING filmed/interviewed for another purpose - TV show or interview or documentary by a different org.

It’s circus.

I wonder how all the sports fans would occupy their time if there were no paid professional sports and what would occupy their minds? Maybe they’d be more engaged in the real world around them

There is no conspiracy. The Pats are just cheaters, period.

One of the many reasons why I’m not sad at all about those two blown calls that cost the Patriots in Sunday’s game. What goes around comes around.

“The NFL has specific rules about filming.”

Two comments;
1. Why bother?
2. Why not just record their games played on tv? Hey

It wouldn't matter if Belichick was playing a Junior College team. If he can cheat to get an even bigger edge and get away with it then he will.
