Episode 4. Serious turns to sinister in the latest instalment of the Inside The Pocket series as the boys turn their attention to NFL scandals. Pushing the boundaries of fair play is common in most sports. It's how far you take it that distinguishes the blurred lines between gaining an edge and cheating. In this pod we look at three moments of the modern era that rocked the sport to it's core - Spygate, Bountygate & Deflategate, and debate whether or not the punishments fit the crimes. Just how much cheating is too much cheating?

From Hall of Fame Tight End to Superbowl wining Head Coach, we discuss what it is that drove such an angry man to success, and whether his confrontational style could ever work in the modern game. Enjoy!

Enjoy!
