Sorry, must have hit the wrong key.
2. To completely eliminate any chance of ball deflation, the opposing team will hold all footballs being used by the Patriots offense and release them to a designated official when needed.
3. To guard against any misleading and unfair plays being called by the Patriots, an NFL official will be stationed in their huddle and on their sidelines. Any play called by the Patriots must be cleared by these officials before being run on the field.
These rule changes should help to level the playing field.
And if this does not work...
Proposed rule change coming in 2017
Patriots are not allowed to use a football, or anything that resembles a football, or any item that ends in ..ball.
For the integrity.
