Peter King needs glasses - New England Patriots Forums

The roughing call can be argued...I guess...but this?

Baltimore pass rusher Terrell Suggs after getting a questionable roughing-the-passer call by referee Ron Winter for brushing against Tom Brady's knee while Suggs was on the ground at New England Sunday. The Ravens spent much of their postgame period with the media biting their tongues so as not to get fined by the league for criticizing Winter's crew after a few ticky-tack calls.

I love how people are totally ignoring how Suggs purposely dove at Brady's knees. He wasn't blocked and there was no reason for him to be falling that way. If it wasn't for Brady dodging him, it wouldn't have been a "brush" and could have been another potential season ending injury. Total BS.

I am so tired of Peter King ... really ... he is so irrelevant ... the NFL has passed him by.

Hey, that is Brady's rule. If it was not invoked for him, for who else they are going to.

And I absolutely cannot believe the number of jerktards all over the Internets who insist that Suggs was shoved. It couldn't be more clear in the replay that he wasn't even nudged towards Brady.

I hate people.

They said that on ESPN tonight too. I re-watched it several times and although Neal's arm did extend it looked like it was all Suggs' momentum - and the reason he only brushed Brady is because Tommy got out of the way; Suggs was aiming dead center for the knee.

As fans, we need to move on. Nothing we say or believe will change how things are perceived by the non pats fans.

The players have, I think Brady even made mention of the hit not being intentional.

Doesn't Peter King live in Boston?
I somehow think that he feels the need to pile on when it comes to us.

Of course he piles it on. I can't stand him and haven't read one of his articles since spygate. I just let that blowhard bother me anymore.

Ultimately you are correct, its just not an easy thing to do. Its quite frustrating.
