Steelers Chairman Dan Rooney on the Taping of Steelers Games

We consider the tapes of our coaching staff during our games against the New England Patriots to be a non-issue. In our opinion, they had no impact on the results of those games.

The Steelers fully support the manner in which Commissioner Goodell handled the situation and the discipline that he levied against those who violated league rules.

We are confident that the Commissioner has taken appropriate action in his investigation of this matter, and will do so again if new information arises which requires further investigation and or discipline.
