Rogers Clemens plays for the Jets too? Does he get a million a game there? Hard to believe he is the future, he is like 50 years old. Or is it Clemens kid?

i wasn't there. i was watching the game on tv. what i saw was pennington doing everything he could to get off the field on a bad wheel and hearing the crowd cheer.

i think everyone who wasn't there interpreted the cheering while a guy crawled/hopped/rolled to the sideline as cheering the injury.

"What do you think the penalty should be?"

lose 1 draft choice on day 1 of the draft. i don't have enough info to judge which round is appropriate but that penalty is fairly severe even if it's round 6. and i trust that goodell has the overall interest of the league in mind and won't play favorites.

I can't stand Belichick either...but Clemens the future??? Why is it that Jet fans never give credit to Pennington... he's a decent, smart guy and a very good quarterback. But, back to the subject at hand; Belichick is not a good guy and he'll sell his mother to win!

Goodell is giving guys 4 games for jaywalking. What is he going to dish out to the Pats for doing something that screws with the integrity of the game? Everyone knows that they didn't need to do it, but the fact that they were doing it has to make you think.

easy to blame the QB, only one pennington, but lots of coaches on the staff...

The Jets dont really deserve to benefit from a stupid Patriot Act though.

Hows about the Jets still keep their loss, and the Patriots are also given a loss. I like that. Yes... I think I do.

Stealing signs is a big deal? It is ok for 90% of the league to be juiced to the gills but we should take away a win for videotaping signs? I always thought they should try to tap into the headphones and call in phony plays.

Stealing signs the old fashioned way is one thing. Stealing signs using a camera when the rules explicitly ban that AND you've already been warned for doing it is a much bigger offense and deserves a serious punishment. A slap on the wrist and you will have every team with a camera on their sidelines stealing signs next week. It will become horse racing.

And I don't think much of the league is on steroids anymore, close to 90% is probably on HGH though.

Oh, and the punishment should somehow require Belichick to give a hug of apology to Mangini after he shoves a cameraman.

I can't believe there are 45 posts about this.

It's not as though you can gain a real meaningfull edge in the game by doing what NE was caught doing.

I would think it is something that might help them against that team when they meet them down the line.

To me, it's much ado about nothing.

Though, it goes to show what silly lengths NE will go to in order to try and gain the ever so slightest of advantages.

He has been warned about this very issue in the past. What do you think the penalty should be?
This one is a no brainer Hoss......You need to do something that punishes Kraft as much as the other Mr B.

THE PATRIOTS PLAY TWO GAMES AT NEW YORK JETS NEXT YEAR!!!!!

The punishment is both financial and psychological by giving a playing advantage to the team wronged while avoiding the dreaded punishing by draft picks which just means the Patriots use that money on free agents. Mr B would never really serve a suspension as he would still manage the team secretly. If you force the Pats to lose millions in concessions and parking revenue plus try and concentrate before the hostile crowd from hell X 2 you have a quid pro quo where the offense occured. A home game is huge!!!

I think the Patriots offense should have to give the Jets their plays beforehand in the next two games. Picture Brady at the line..."I'm going to throw it to that guy..."

Patriots still win by 14...
