The Brady rule. This is crazy! It's hard to enjoy a decent game of football when your team is flagged for this ridiculous rule. Its one thing if a guy is deliberately making a dirty hit that could injure a player or place his career in jeopardy. Its a whole different ball game when you flag a guy for touching the QB.
Even though I'm reacting like this based on a few non-hits made on Brady, for who the rule was put in place, this past week against Baltimore, it is spilling over into other games. Namely, teams with star QB's are getting the benefit of lousy calls because the league is afraid that it will lose another superstar for a year like it did with both Brady and Carson Palmer.
These guys get paid to play the game of football. This is a man's sport! You're telling me they have to be untouchable during the whole game? Just my two cents, but I believe in penalties that prevent injury but not penalties that prevent the game from being played.
