According to this article on ESPN.com, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is now proposing much tighter restrictions on cheating in the NFL. After the debacle of SpyGate for the Patriots, rising up then going away only to resurface at the end of the season and into the offseason, apparently Goodell felt it would be best if he implemented a new course of attack on those who choose to bend or circumvent the rules in the National Football League. I’m sure the recent congressional investigation into the entire matter had more than just a little to do with it.
What does this mean for the Patriots? Well it most likely means that the electronic malfunctions of communication between the coaches up in the away team’s booth and the sideline will go away immediately. I think it’s a safe bet that you won’t hear about any more videotaping going on with the Pats. I also hope that this crackdown turns up a few more teams in the NFL who are willing to go around the rules a little. I’m 100% certain the Patriots weren’t the only team doing stuff like this. I simply think they were made into the scapegoats.
