Is it more or....

Is Tom Brady being a bi**ch?

Seriously, did you see the Ravens game where the LB brushed him?

It was bs, and Brady knew it.

Here is the video.

Pick your poison: Defenses trying to adjust to QB protection plans

Ya i saw that. Sadder thing is he got the call from the refs.

Clearly Brady influenced at least one of those calls. Brady and Payton Manning obviously play in skirts needing extra protection while most other QB's in the league put their pants on one leg at a time like all the rest of the NFL players.

I agree If you look at it the ref does not even start for his flag till Brady had a fit about it. ITS FREAKING FOOTBALL let them play.

Yup, the players should NOT be making the calls.

I was watching this game.

First off, if you watch the video in the link, they also show a far lesser "helmet contact" type of foul against New England, that occurred prior to the one on Brady.

So the standard for helmet contact had already been established in the game.

Secondly, while the two angles that they show in your video link of the knee penalty are not as telling as some of the replay that was shown on gameday, this was actually a dirty attempt at the knee, that was downplayed. The defender should have been fined, IMO.

Thirdly, to the notion that Brady 'coaxed' this penalty from the ref, try looking at the video at about 4:40 - 4:50. You can clearly see the ref reaching for the flag before brady gets to plead his case. The ref made this call on his own.

Also, how many times have you seen a WR try to convince a ref to call pass Interference? Or a Wr, with defensive PI? How about a d-lineman with holding?

If the player knows the rules and feels like those rules were broken, then they try to get the ref to notice. Plain and simple.

Now I am sure to be labelled a "Brady lover" or something....

Tom called, he needs a kiss...Brady lover.

Get the flags out!!! QB's are only treated different because they are the "Golden Boys" of the league. Last time I checked, they had the same amount of equipment and even more sometimes!
