Here are the facts that we know:

(1) That no one who played in the AFC Championship game has said on record that the balls felt under inflated to them.

Here are the rumors:

(1) That DQwell Jackson intercepted a pass and turned it over because he thought it was underinflated. [Jackson has denied this; he turned it over b/c he wanted a souvenir]

(2) That refs found 11 of 12 Patriots balls to be under inflated during halftime. This is an unsubstantiated allegation that was "leaked." The NFL has made no official statement.

This has turned into a witch hunt. It is ridiculous.

Lopsided game was bad for the network. That's the only reason they're carrying on this click bait witch hunt.

We also know the Joe Theismann couldn't tell the difference.

Former NFL quarterbacks talk Deflategate

One of them, former Washington quarterback Joe Theismann, went so far as to do a test with one legal football and one deflated football on Wednesday.

"I wanted to physically handle the footballs and see if I could tell a difference in them," Theismann told USA TODAY Sports' Jim Corbett. "And I couldn't."

Which suggests no one could have figured it out by feel.

The Patriots fans are really out in full damage control. It's amusing.

We know your team cheats, you know it. It's fine. It's nothing. The NFL destroyed the evidence from spygate, lol, I'm sure that was just an accident! Accept it and let it go.

We've already accepted that the league is full of PED users, rapists, wife-beaters, and dog-electrocuters. Belicheat is just a sideshow as the NFL slides into the authenticity level of pro wrestling.

We still watch the games, and we still will. Brady's tender balls are the least of the things we're going to worry about.
