That’s homefield advantage.

Lol. Who wrote that? It doesn't sound the like the allegations came from the rams but some writer trying to make a name for themselves

That may be home field advantage, but even MLB decided to (in some stadiums) fill in the outfield bleachers, so that the ball from the pitcher is not blended in with fans, so that the ball has a solid background on the delivery.

I can't imagine anyone saying that having a white/mostly white background behind the pitchers throwing arm, would be "home field advantage...

 

[AvengerRam]

So that’s why the Eagles, Jets and Packers always win on green fields?

Sadly, the road team has this advantage at half the games at So-Fi.

The Dolphins sideline is in the shade at their stadium, while the opponents is in full sun.

I don’t see much difference.

 

[rdlkgliders]

i don't see the issue at all, seems fair to me

 

[Corbin]

Hmm not as bad as I expected

 

[Stl2La]

lol that must like the tmz of England

 

[TheTackle]

Whether it’s cheating is debatable but you can see the point! Stafford was not to blame that’s for sure

Saw a lot of people (not just here) bring this up. I think it's a cheap excuse, and sore loser mentality. They changed their uniforms and adjusted the color slightly but their endzone and walls have matched for sometome now.

Last season

Stafford

Wider shot of Sunday

Teams are going to obviously use their team colours for their stadium decor. Some weeks that will match their uniforms. Some weeks maybe not if teams have more than 1 jersey they wear at home. Really bad excuse. It was a bad throw/decision by Stafford at a very damaging time and situation in a generally outstanding performance by #9. Maybe he didn't see him, but it is not like he camouflaged in. I agree with @shovelpass. Sore loser mentality.

 

[Mojo Ram]

Cheating? No.

 

[dieterbrock]

Pretty misleading article/thread title
Fans were complaining? Yeah, that's not an accusation

 

[Psycho_X]

Just one of those things that hits twitter and than spreads as "news". Than all the sites that rely on clicks from made up content or propaganda spreading write up a story about it.

 

[Dodgersrf]

Bullshit article, but interesting topic.

The camouflage is real, but it’s definitely not cheating.

Agreed every team does it

 

[majrleaged]

Just fucking stupid.

 

[HE WITH HORNS]

If there is any reason we lost the game it's because of the injuries. The kneecaps are a very dirty team, I wouldn't put it past them to have intentionally hurt at least one of our players, if not tried to.
