But since it is New England hard to have sympathy since they are famous for stretching the rules
The Bears and Cowboys were docked practices last year, and apparently the Texans and Commanders broke off season rules as well and supposedly other teams, but the articles don't name them.

So I'm pretty sure confusion (or not) around the offseason rules isn't just a Patriots thing.
That it became news to the extent it has seems to be just because it's the Patriots.
