I have never seen that kind of incomplete pass called intentional grounding.

Never.

Was the fix in from Los Vegas?

It was a good call....no receiver in sight.....Brady was in between the tackles and under pressure.

There wasn’t a receiver within 20 yards and he was in his end zone..

It was a good call and glad it was called because Brady probably thought he could get away with it.....and didn’t

“Fix?” There were 2 times at the end of the game that the clock was allowed to run after the play was whistled dead.
Even after the second one, Chris Collingsworth noted that the clock continued to run. In the NFL, a few seconds could mean one more or less play.

I have never seen that kind of incomplete pass called intentional grounding. Never.

it is only called if the QB throws the ball to avoid an imminent sack. Has there been no threat of that, it would have been incomplete pass.

There was no reciever anywhere near the ball. It was so blatant the announcers even called it!

Brady was stupid to think he could get away with it.

It was the right call. He was in the pocket and launched it to avoid the sack.

“I have never seen that kind of incomplete pass called intentional grounding.”

Yeah, I thought that was a bit of an odd call. But hubby said it was legit. He was also thrilled because he had said “let’s get 2” and, lol, they did.
