Would it be possible for them to just completely disqualify NE and take Indy to the superbowl. Or do they just hand the organization a massive fine and possibly suspend Bellicheck or something.

Loss of draft pick(s) maybe.

well they caught them literally spying on the other teams plays, and fined them

I assume a fine

That is also what the rules say the punishment if for.

They straight up are cheaters though so whatever.

They make Belichick have a 6 hour session with the media during SB week.

Then they launch an all-out investigation to explain to me how in the hell this matters.

First half with deflated balls, 17-7.

Reported at halftime.

Second half with non-deflated balls, 28-0.

Looks like they did Indy a favor in the first half.

I thought I heard that the penalty could be draft picks?

I think they did better in the second half with the inflated balls. The receivers were having a hard time catching Brady's passes in the first half.

If there were anything to do this we would know by now.

the balls were available as this story unfolded.
All balls used after half time all weighed in more than the maximum because they were heavy with rain.

And if they did disqualify them, they should send baltimore. Baltimore is so much better than Indy.
No one would watch Indy vs Seahawks. it would be like a 12 year old fighting a 4 year old.

I'm sure the Pats will miss that 5th round draft pick. But seriously, you guys do realize that the claim was made by an Indy beat writer who has the same journalistic integrity as Skip Bayless, right?

Brady said it didn't happen and he is God.
