Eric Mangini and the Jets took great pains yesterday to quell a potential videotaping controversy of their own, and the NFL backed them up by giving the league's stamp of approval to the Jets' version of events.

Patriots 74, Jets 3...lock of the week!

It won't be that bad, but it's gonna be ugly!

Can't wait for the game, there is a lot of bad blood between coaches and the players. And the Jets a bad-very bad. It could be really embarrassing and I hope it is. Manidiot deserves everything he gets from the Patriiots!!

Im just so happy its a 1 pm game and not 4 or 8...
those late games were killing me.

Big headlines, can you imagine, NFL BACKS JETS! The Patriots lose a #1 draft pick , heavy fines etc. and the New Jersey Jets go on improving their record, with fans thinking that they are the good guys. Lesson: don't commit your sins in New York/New Jersey when the league office is a local call away, and/or they can show up in person. [Remember how easy it was for MLB to show up to check on Terry Francona's dress code "violation" at Yankee Stadium?] New York advantage or just the nearness of rats?

Where are all the Patsy fans now? Sounds to me that the Patys were trying to get back at the Jets by telling them they could film, then doing a 180 and trying to make it look like the Jets were Patrioting (I mean cheating). The NFL agreed with the Jets. Looks like you guys are SOL.

who here believes that Belichick or Kraft or anyone in the New England Patriots would give Eric Mangini permission to do ANYTHING other than use the locker room at Gillette?????
raise your hands high so we can count them ?...1...oh wait, he was scratching his head... none?
thats what I thought

yeah Eric, hows that 3-10 record working for the Jets ?. getting ready for the playoffs? order your deli platters early..

December 13, 2007  08:33 AM ET

I don't know how anything is working out for the Jets. I don't follow nor do I care about that team.

December 13, 2007  08:36 AM ET

Eric
My bad. you care nothing for the jets, you just hate the patriots.
I get it.
now it makes sense. sorry.. my bad

December 13, 2007  08:36 AM ET

Well, look who just caught up.

December 13, 2007  08:38 AM ET

I said I was sorry......
Im used to other fans hating the pats, just not used to people liking the Jets.

December 13, 2007  08:40 AM ET

lol

December 13, 2007  08:41 AM ET

ok I'm changing my prediction

good weather

pats 1,434 jets 3

bad weather

pats 1,431 jets 3

if there is bad weather, the Past miss a last second field goad due to poor snow remoal by the convict driving the snow plow.

Wait...so video taping is legal (and not cheating)....gasp...who woulda thunk ?

December 13, 2007  08:43 AM ET

ok, so Mangini was mad that his camera guy got kicked out so he decided to rat out BB during their next meeting. got it!

December 13, 2007  08:45 AM ET

oooo good link :D

December 13, 2007  08:46 AM ET

The good part of this article is that the media talking heads (like the ESPN crew) will have to acknowldge that video taping is OK and that the Pats were wrong for only WHERE they were taping.

I can't wait to see Tom Jackson & Steve Young eat crow on Sunday :)
