NFL analyst Boomer Esiason was on the Toucher & Rich radio show Wednesday morning to discuss a number of topics. One of the subjects he talked about was the Deflategate situation involving the Patriots.

Both the Colts and Ravens claimed the Patriots used deflated footballs against them in the playoffs. According to Esiason the two teams coordinated with one another to “embarrass Tom Brady.”
There was a report the Ravens tipped off the Colts about the deflated footballs, but Baltimore coach John Harbaugh denied those allegations on the NBC Super Bowl pregame show.
“I heard all that; I couldn’t believe it when I heard it,” Harbaugh said. “It’s ridiculous, it never happened. I never made any call. Nobody in our organization made any call. As a matter of fact, just to make sure I had all the facts, I called up Chuck Pagano this week and asked him, ‘Did anybody else in our organization tip you off about deflated footballs?’ and he said, ‘No way.’ "
