Bears head coach and former Rams defensive coordinator Lovie Smith was among the coaches and team officials to address the media today at the Combine, and was of course asked about Spygate. Smith was with St. Louis when the it lost to the Patriots in Super Bowl XXXVI.
Asked if he felt like New England had some inside information during the game, Smith replied, "No, not at all. Again, I'm having a hard time remembering last year's (Super Bowl). To think back to St. Louis, that's definitely harder for me. But what I recall is that we were beaten by a good football team that year. It was an excellent football game. And that's about all I remember from it."
Smith said his team takes precautions to try and prevent opponents from stealing defensive signals, but it isn't a major focus.
"We take all type of precautions. You have wristband calls and things like that. I don't spend a whole lot of time ... most of our effort goes into trying to find a way to be successful on the football field doing it the right way. We spend most of our time on that. We have precautions in place to guard against that on game day, and that's how we've always done it," he said.
