I have no clue. Is there any precedent for this?

Again, from the game manual: "If any individual alters the footballs, or if a non-approved ball is used in the game, the person responsible and, if appropriate, the head coach or other club personnel will be subject to discipline, including but not limited to, a fine of $25,000."

They should get the exact punishment handed down to the Packers, Vikings, and Panthers for altering the ball.

s both teams dealt with the freezing temperatures, Fox cameras showed sideline attendants using heaters to warm up game balls, which is against league rules. NFL vice president of officiating Dean Blandino said Monday morning on NFL Network that officials warned both the Vikings and Panthers not to heat up the balls during Sunday's game, and would remind teams this week not to heat game balls.
"You can't do anything with the footballs in terms of any artificial, whether you're heating them up, whether it's a regular game ball or kicking ball, you can't do anything to the football," Blandino said. "So that was noticed during the game, both teams were made aware of it during the game and we will certainly remind the clubs as we get into more cold weather games that you can't do anything with the football in terms of heating them up with those sideline heaters."

Nantz: We talked to [Aaron] Rodgers about 'How do you like your footballs?' Because, you know, you can rub them up before the game. [Phil], you really kind of created that for everybody else in the league.
Simms: I don’t know if I did, because the quarterbacks got tired of them complaining. But he said something [that] was unique: 'I like to push the limit to how much air we can put in the football, even go over what they allow you to do and see if the officials take air out of it.' Because he thinks it’s easier for him to grip. He likes them tight. Of course, he’s got very big hands and you can tell that by watching him play.

Why do teams play with separate balls anyway?
I thought the refs maintained the balls.

Give up 1st round to IND, 2nd round to BAL, 3rd round to BUF, 4th round to MIA, 5th round to NYJ in exchange for NYJ 6th?
That would probably put an end to these shenanigans.

El.
Oh.
El.
I literally posted Aaron Rodgers bragging about attempting and succeeding to breaking this exact rule.
It's going to be a shitty draft if 3 teams have no picks.

Belichik should be suspended for a full season. or at least 10 games.

You can suspend that guy Belichik all you want!

I believe Bellichick and Brady should face the full penalty allowed by NFL rules, and be placed in an iron maiden with spikes on the inside

I thought they were screwed when they paid a 1st rounder, 4th and 7th to get Belichek from Jets. It did not matter at all.
They will just use the money to sign real deal free agents and undrafted free agents from D-II who will all get on the field from day one.

it will be interesting if they use as defense Aaron Rogers confession.
Does Green Bay have to pay the same penalty?
I doubt its more than a single 1st round pick, #32 in the draft.
