Per Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer the NFL may be coming closer to getting to the bottom of the Patriots “Deflate-gate” scandal.

After much ridicule and being questioned all last week by the media, Belichick, Brady, and the Patriots may have found their scapegoat they need to start focusing on the Super Bowl.

It isn’t clear yet what repercussions the Patriots may face if found guilty of tampering. Outspoken Seahawks Corner Back Richard Sherman said “Will they be punished? Probably not. Not as long as (Patriots Owner) Robert Kraft and Roger Goodell are still taking pictures at their respective homes. Talk about conflict of interest.”

Even if the investigation were expedited to the fullest extent I doubt any real punishment will be handed out to affect the biggest game of the year.
