Eric Dickerson: Patriots cheated against the Rams 17 years ago originally appeared on nbcsportsboston.com Eric Dickerson is a legend in all respects, a Hall of Famer and one of the best running backs to ever play the game. He also used to play for the Rams. And like most Rams fans, he’s convinced that the Patriots cheated during their last Super Bowl matchup against the Rams.

After Kawhi Leonardrepeatedly told the Spurs he’d play then didn’t, his teammates held a players-only meeting imploring him to play. Leonard stood his ground and said, despite his desire to return, he wouldn’t guarantee playing again that season. Tony Parker, who had already returned to the lineup, said his quad injury was “100 times worse� than Leonard’s and went out of his way to say he never considered getting a second opinion from outside the Spurs.
