Bears’ Justin Jones made hilarious reference to ‘Deflategate’ after Chicago deflated the Patriots on MNF

Deflategate will never go away.

Have the kind of night the Bears did against the Patriots on Monday, and you’d be riding high, enjoying yourself to the fullest. After lofty comments he made about New England last week, Chicago defensive tackle Justin Jones might be the happiest of any Bears player right now.

You see, in the lead-up to their Monday night matchup, Jones said he would “check the balls” to ensure they were properly inflated before the Bears and Patriots actually squared off. According to the veteran, the ghosts of “Deflategate’s” past never left.

In fact, when asked what the first thing he thinks of is with Bill Belichick, Jones said, “deflated balls.”

Oh, boy. After giving up that kind of bulletin board material, you’d think the Patriots would be ready to back up their coach and general organization. They were not. The Bears smacked them around in a clinical 33-14 laugher on national television. In the process, Chicago’s defense racked up three picks (including some noteworthy revenge from Jaquan Brisker) of the rotating Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe.

That wasn’t lost on Justin Jones, who had a perfect callback to his Deflategate comments that built up to the game.

We have no possible way to completely verify if Jones’ (serious?) accusation has any merit. But it’s admittedly hard to argue with the logic of the Bears’ defense hounding the New England signal-callers because, according to Jones, they had less control of fully-inflated footballs. Hey, that makes sense to me!

At any rate, Jones and the Bears certainly earned their flowers and earned the right to say whatever they please about Belichick and the Patriots.

Tom Brady details the confusion he felt at the early outset of Deflategate

“I didn’t know what was going on, I didn’t know what they were talking about.”

Former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady said he didn’t truly understand what was happening in the wake of accusations he had deflated footballs, a scandal which he initially laughed off.

But those accusations — and the scandal — escalated enormously in the months that followed into Deflategate. The now-Buccaneers quarterback explained what was going through his mind during the first few days of the ball-deflating controversy.

“I think the next morning is when I heard about it,” Brady says, with his interview spliced up with video clips from his infamous Deflategate news conference. “… I didn’t know what was going on, I didn’t know what they were talking about, so I kind of just laughed it off. … I think everyone was trying to figure out exactly what was happening, what was — obviously what we were being accused of doing. … I just remember walking in (to a press conference), and there was different cameras there than ever before. This was not a football story anymore. … When you’re being accused of something, first of all, you’re trying to figure out exactly what happened yourself.”

As he came to digest the accusations, Brady actually had familiar feelings.

“We’d accomplished so much as a team, and here we are talking about something that we didn’t know much about at the time,” Brady said. “All it is is negativity and people trying to take us down, and I think that part was familiar.”

The NFL ultimately issued a four-game suspension for Brady and though he attempted an appeal in court, he served the suspension. In the Super Bowl immediately after the initial accusations, Brady and the Patriots defeated the Seattle Seahawks. Then in the Super Bowl following the suspension, Brady and the Patriots defeated the Atlanta Falcons in the Super Bowl.

Peyton Manning takes slight dig at Patriots in interview with Kurt Russell

Some jokes will live forever, right Peyton?

When there’s a moment to take a shot at the New England Patriots for cheating, that window of opportunity will oftentimes be utilized.

Spygate was a little more serious and NFL fans had real frustration with Bill Belichick, as they questioned the integrity of the game. As for Deflategate, there was less definitive proof and it leads to jokes that are much more easygoing.

Legendary quarterback Peyton Manning took advantage of this window during his latest episode of “Peyton’s Places.” Manning was interviewing actor Kurt Russell and discussed his 1986 film, “The Best of Times” — diving into the role of playing quarterback on camera.

“(The football was) kinda softened a little bit so I can get on top of it,” Russell said.

This elicited a much-expected response.

“Kinda like the Patriots, yeah.”

Regardless of the jokes, Tom Brady’s upcoming Super Bowl appearance with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers proves who holds the GOAT title.

Tom Brady wants to challenge Roger Goodell … but it’s for a good cause

Tom Brady took to his Instagram today to announce his involvement in the All In Challenge to raise money during the coronavirus crisis.

It’s not secret that Bucs quarterback Tom Brady and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell have had their share of disagreements. The whole Deflategate scandal involving Brady and the New England Patriots created a divide between the future Hall of Famer and the commish, especially after Brady was handed a four-game suspension, which he eventually served at the start of the 2016 season.

But time heals all wounds, and with the world working to combat the coronavirus pandemic, Brady is letting bygones be bygones in order to bring help to those in need. Brady took to his Instagram today to post a video, announcing he’s taking part in the All In Challenge, an online auction where all proceeds go to helping those in need during this difficult time. Celebrities like Brady have put up items for auction with the goal of reaching $100 million.

Check out Brady’s video below to hear what he’s offering, and see who he challenges to take part in the auction.

Your move, Goodell!
