D'Qwell Jackson: I didn't recognize anything different about the ball
After Thursday's Pro Bowl practice at Luke Air Force Base in Glendale, Arizona, Jackson said he couldn't tell whether the ball he intercepted in the second quarter of a 45-7 loss to the New England Patriots was or wasn't deflated below the threshold allowed by the NFL.
"I'm a linebacker, I'm a defensive guy," Jackson said. "If anybody recognized anything it definitely wouldn't come from me."
Why would Brady ever admit he could tell a difference between the balls during the game. There is no upside for him and there is no way anyone can ever prove he could tell a difference. What evidence could ever prove he could tell the difference- he only knows that.
I think the NFL hates but loves this (due to ratings bump). NE was smart to get ahead of things and control the message a bit. No way they admit a thing prior to Super Bowl and risk a suspension. The NFL will probably state they need more time to investigate and then they win - higher ratings and hammer NE next year.
They are also only talking about the QB liking a softer ball. Having played receiver in college it is also nice/easier to catch a ball in wet/cold weather. That is why when I am teaching my 5 year old to catch and throw a ball- I don't fully inflate it.

Re: you played for that loser of a program, DPU, that has dropped how many bell
Lots of balls at Wabash. Not many Bell losses when I played. Did you play for them or were you one of those guys wearing candy striped overalls and beanies.
I had to give you are hard time- why so defensive. My college decision came down to Wabash, DePauw and Rose Hulman. I have many good friends that are Wabash grads that are great guys.
By the way- I am not a Colts fan.
