There’s been a lot of conversation in the past 24 hours centered around a controversial roughing the passer call near the end of Sunday’s Falcons-Buccaneers game.
Falcons defensive tackle Grady Jarrett was on the receiving end of the penalty heard ‘round the NFL world after sacking Tom Brady on third-and-5 from the Atlanta 47-yard line with less than three minutes left in the contest. The play effectively ended the game as Tampa Bay was awarded a first down, and ran out the rest of the clock to seal a 21-15 victory.
After the game, Brady offered a simply reply when asked about the reply, telling reporters, “I don’t throw the flags.” The Bucs quarterback was a bit more animated, however, while discussing the controversial call with Jim Gray on the newest episode of his Let’s Go! podcast.
