Bart Scott has never been one to bite his tongue or hold back his opinion. Knowing this, Scott giving his thoughts on Tom Brady and Deflategate didn’t come as a shock but there’s some what of a twist. Scott isn’t bashing Brady for his ties to Deflategate, he feels that other teams and huge NFL star players cheat as well but haven’t been caught.
“Some teams are the biggest cheaters in the world. We played teams that were so good at stealing signs, we had to wear wristbands when we played them. I don’t know how they stole them. I think they videotaped us, but I’m not sure. But they stole them.”
“Some of the biggest stars you watch now—huge stars, biggest celebrities in the game—are big cheaters. They cheated more than anybody. They just weren’t caught.”
“I’m not going to name names, but go back and look at tape of when I was with the Ravens, and look at the teams we played when we wore wristbands. We only wore the wristbands against a few teams and those teams were huge cheaters.”
For some reason I totally believe Bart Scott. He has nothing to gain by making this statement nor did he name any specific teams or players. He even came to the aid for Brady despite the fact that he spent 3 seasons in the AFC East chasing Tom Brady as a member of the New York Jets.
