The Eagles won the Super Bowl and all that, but hot damn is this dumb.

Long snapper Rick Lovato said the Eagles ran a fake walkthrough in case the Patriots were spying on them.

Bleacher Report:

"I believe our whole walkthrough was just a complete fake walkthrough," Lovato said on 620 WDAE in Tampa (h/t Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk). "We did it at the stadium. There were certain people walking around...I believe I overheard someone say a lot of the plays we were running weren’t even in the playbook for the Super Bowl."

"We already had our game plan set all week for the last two weeks," Lovato noted. "We had two weeks to prepare for that game. A measly walkthrough the day before the game, we weren’t going to show anything to anyone, especially being at the stadium."

Spygate has been over with for almost a decade and teams still think the Patriots are going to watch them like this?

Gimme a break.
