We’re being accused of spygate

Accused by nobodies, to be specific. But accused nonetheless

yeah this is nothing - you're inevitably going to see the sideline on wide angles - its not like there was a dedicated angle for the pats sideline they just happened to be in a couple of the wider angles

would mean broadcast footage shouldnt be available on gamepass given that it normally shows at least one of the sidelines on a pretty consistent basis
would mean lots of mic'd up segments are in violation for having the opposition sideline in the background
 
Regarding which team to fear/worry the most is irrelevant. As with every week in the regular season, I sleep on NO team whatsoever. That is the beauty of this league despite its tomfoolery from time to time.

Any given week, folks. As long as we continue to play our game and not shoot ourselves in the foot with uncharacteristic penalties or mistakes, we should be good to go.
 
pretty sure those cameras are used for augmented reality also
plus they have the added advantage of also showing off the ravens sideline
 
They're the AFC team I'm most worried about. Texans next. They are a much different squad with Fuller and JJ could make a difference if he returns.
Yea man.. i dont know if we are ready yet. I think we need a lil more playoff experience with this team.kc, packers and saints were SB winners since offseason and it basically havent changed. We can beat KC for sure, but man those weapons on offense are fking crazy

I honestly thought the 360 thing was something everyone around the league had.

Just a salty Pats fan.

This is nothing. I responded to his stupid Tweet about us "cheating" with a post on the Chiefs Twitter account showing a Demarcus Robinson TD from earlier in the season in 360 view. Every team has used 360, you can find any team's footage. I googled "360 camera view nfl" and the top two videos that come up are a TJ Yeldon TD and a Josh Norman interception from the 2018 SEASON.

There goes that controversy, lol

Also essentially you would never have any games for the archive based on that accusation. NFL Films could never film anything because it would look "suspicious" and look like they are helping a team cheat by filming the sidelines.

The National Football League just announced that it's moving its Thursday Night Football streaming coverage from Twitter to Amazon, but there's more news to share this week. Through its on-going partnership with Intel, the NFL plans to install the company's 360 replay tech in more stadiums before the 2017 season kicks off. Right now, the setup is only available in Baltimore, Houston and San Francisco, but it will be in place for more teams this fall.

Intel acquired Replay Technologies and its so-called freeD 360 tech just over a year ago. The system was used for NBA and MLB games as well as college football. Most recently, 360 replays and "Be the Player" views were part of Fox Sports' Super Bowl LI coverage. The whole thing is powered by camera setups that capture 5K visuals and Intel servers that can process up to one terabyte of data per 15-30-second clip. Each stadium where this is installed will have both the cameras and the servers on-site to get replay footage to producers quickly.

That's from 2017. Cheetahs fans are the kings of whataboutism (remember that yourteamcheats.com site from around Deflategate?), which says all you need to know about how much grounds they have to actually justify their own team's actions.

One talking point that isn't being made though is that if they got caught spying on the BENGALS you can guarantee they've been taping every other opponent they've had this season - including their playoff opponents. Then again maybe that just explains why their form's been so poor recently...
 
Just reading through those tweets is interesting, there are people raging about Harbaughs known culture of OTA rule violations lol, I guess its a major problem now that we're winning.

I love the Jihad Ward pick up. He's got a great motor and constantly fighting double teams and it's led to a few fumble recoveries.

liked him in the draft, but I thought he was drafted a bit high considering he was raw. Glad he ended up in Baltimore, even though it wasn't a draft pick.
 
I still think the most dangerous version of our offense is when we spread them out and leave Lamar by himself in the backfield.
