The NFL’s first regular-season game in Germany went relatively well, with the Buccaneers beating the Seahawks, 21-16, but there appeared to be some issues with the playing field. There were moments in the game when players couldn’t keep their footing, including a key moment in the second half where Tom Brady fell while running a pass route, leading to a Buccaneers turnover.
On Monday, one of the veteran players to appear in the game criticized the conditions. Seahawks linebacker Bruce Irvin tweeted his displeasure with the field after returning home.
“The NFL made us fly 10 hours to play on a terrible a** field like that s**** Krazy,” he said.
