Using WT because the headsets are broken is not what I consider cheating. frick the NFL, keep your shite in working order.

The problem is the NFL system cuts you off with 15 seconds left on playclock. WalkieTalkies set up by coaching staff do not cut off. They said "they still observed the rules" but wtf does that mean? You think they cut off communication to the millisecond each time the clock clicked to 15 seconds as it would normally....I don't, but I can guarantee dallas did in every other game they played in the season because they had no choice (I.E. COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE). Not to mention that is only if they are being honest. A couple of seconds could make a massive deal.

Also the 2 stories I read just say they had trouble getting play through but didnt give any reasons. Was it crowd noise???? Did they have a louder speaker???

This may not seem like a bigdeal but I would say this is a much bigger deal than a couple psi in a football like deflate gate.
