Underinflatedapolis Colts Could Only Score With Underinflated Balls

wilson_nfl_duke_official_size_leather_game_ballApparently the footballs used in the first half of the AFC Championship game did not have enough air in them.  At half time they were checked and corrected as needed.   The Patriot-haters are trying to make something out of it but what’s to make?

If true the only points Indy scored in the game were with the under-inflated balls in the first half.  Most of New England’s came in the second half.  Can we speculate that were the balls all regulation, all the time, that Brady would not have thrown the interception that lead to the Colts only points of the game?

Does Indy need under-inflated balls to score?

Under inflated balls Pats 17 Colts 7.
Properly Inflated Balls Patriots 28 Colts 0
Final Pats 45 Colts 7

Scandal?  I think not.  Embarrassing loss?  More now than ever.
