Patriots Cheated in Steelers in 2002 AFC Championship game

Former New England Patriots video assistant Matt Walsh sent the NFL eight videotapes that show New England violated league rules by recording opposing coaches' playcalling signals. One of the opponents were the Steelers in the 2002 AFC Championship game.

The New York Times first reported the story on its Web site last night.

The tape of the Steelers AFC championship game was the most extensive, the Times said, and had been edited to show Steelers coaches signaling plays, followed by two different camera angles of the actual plays that were called. The tapes sent to the NFL show the Patriots recorded signals in regular-season games against Miami, Buffalo, Cleveland, San Diego and the Steelers.
