Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers barely escaped with a victory on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons. The Bucs won, 21-15, but more than a few folks might say that they had a little help from the game officials after Atlanta defensive lineman Grady Jarrett was flagged for a controversial roughing the passer call on Brady in the dying moments of the game.

That's savage. To be fair, Patterson didn't say anything against the referee (except for the “BS call” comment, of course), so I'm not sure if the NFL can fine the Falcons WR for his actions here.

For those that require additional context, here is the play in question:

To say that the call was controversial would be an understatement. You can clearly see in the reaction of the Flacons players and their coaching staff that they were incensed by the penalty. After all, it did cost them the game.
