Bad throw or not the receiver needs to make sure he isn't undercut and he attempts to go after the ball if not to make the catch at least to knock away an int.
Put the blame on Brady but for Bill O'Brien to go off on TFB like he did, yelling, tearing off his head set is not how you talk to your MVP, HOF'er, legend QB. If BB see's fit to do it fine but not Bill [expletive] head, piece of [expletive] O'Brien.

So you feel that an OC should be subservient to his players? That he should be afraid to exercise his duties as Brady's boss?
He acted like an authority figure disciplining one player for yelling at another.Um, did you see how O'Brien acted? He acted like a little bit*h! Ripping his headset off, yelling.... I mean screaming, he handled it wrong.
Really? Do you really think football coaches don't yell?Be a pro and calmly handle the situation.
He acted like he lost control.
A coach yelling at a player is not being out of control of his emotions.Believe me, if the OC can not control his emotions then how the hell do you expect him to handle stress under pressure? Very unprofessional of a "boss" as you say to handle the situation. Lucky for O'Brian that nobody punched him in the face for acting like that.
You don't know the details.There is a right way and a wrong way to handle it, O'Brien chose the wrong way.
If this opinion were correct 90% of the coaches in the NFL would be out of work.He should be pretty embarrassed for the way he handled it by screaming. Seriously, he looked like a little kid throwing a tantrum.... at another grown man,
a legend, HOF'er, the team MVP, a person who has accomplished more then O'Brien himself. TFB deserves more respect then that!

This. Tom screwed up, but the coaching staff is supposed to be the "adult supervision". For BOB to act the way he did, to initiate that confrontation, to keep attacking Brady verbally in front of Brady's receives and the backup QB (after Brady disengaged) such that BB had to intervene - that's just unacceptable.
People will want to lay blame on Brady for talking back as a player and because it was his screwup that set BOB off, but you don't treat your QB like that, let alone your HOF, MVP, best regular season ever, 3 time SB winning QB.

If Brady was wrong Brady was wrong regardless of his resume.
You simply cannot have a player disrespecting a coach. Coaches 'disrespect' players all the time, its called evaluation. If a player wants to yell at his coach because he disagrees with the evaluation that is a player issue, not a coach issue. There is a hierarchy, and authority structure.
If Brady has no problem with it, why do you guys?
Because we're talking about the Patriots and Patriots coaches, not Kansas City and Todd Haley.

Show me another OC who has thrown a tantrum at a elite level QB... Not head coaches but an OC. Ya know, as much as you want to say or pretend to think that Brady is like every other player on that team, he isn't! Everyone knows it. Just because O'Brien is Brady's boss (LOL) he deserves more respect from the OC then that.
TB isn't a rookie needing a tongue lashing from a OC to be corrected, he is a vet, a HOF'er! Look back and let me know if you ever seen Elway, Montana, Marino, Manning, Rogers, the list could go on and on of top talent QB's that was ever screamed at on the sideline like that by the OC. You wont find it because the OC of top QB's give them their due respect otherwise they are out the door.

he threw a dumb pic when we could've gotten 3 easy, then blaming underwood the newbie. This kids being developed at WR, smashing his confidence for a play that didn't need to be called warranted an ego check. BOB was livid, he did the right thing.
The whole situation is pretty funny looking back at it. I said to myself "there's no way TB throws a pic here" right before the snap, then he throws a pic, lmao. could've run it, taken a knee, threw the ball away, chucked it at the back of a DB's head for laughs you name it.
there's never a dull moment watching TB that's for dam sure.
