The much maligned DeMarco Murray has a total of 13 fumbles in his career on 934 carries meanwhile Blount has 13 fumbles on just 704 carries.
Considering the conditions were wet & that Belichick's game plan was using Blount to bulldoze the Colts D-line to submission it won't be far fetched to claim it was to the Pats advantage to deflate the ball especially against a team which had a nonexistent running game.
