Here is the video of Rodney Harrison calling out Tom Brady during the NBC broadcast of Sunday Night Football.

I really like the style that all three broadcasters bring to show. The veteran Dan Patrick one of the best sportscasters on television today. Tony Dungy a truly great coach and person and Rodney Harrison who seems to be a straight shooter who does not hold back even when talking about his ex teammate Tom Brady. Harrison said "Take off the skirt and put on some slacks, toughen up". Here is the complete video which shows the play involved in the controversy.

During the NBC Sunday Night Football Half Time Show, Rodney Harrison calls out Tom Brady, he said "take off the skirt and put on some slacks, toughen up".

Ex Indianapolis Colts coach Tony Dungy agreed with him which was the funniest thing of all. Rodney was well known for being a tough some might even call him a dirty player. No matter what you think of him the guy gave 100% every time he played. I am not a Patriots fan at all but can appreciate a good football player even if he plays for a rival city/state.

Harrison seems to have the same tenacity with his broadcasting style, this is very refreshing. I would have never thought he would call out a teammate especially the "Mr. Perfect" of the NFL Tom "Can Do No Wrong" Brady.

The ex Patriot was right on the money with his comments. The play in question happened in the New England vs. Baltimore game earlier today. The Ravens Terrell Suggs was falling forward after a power rush (might have even been pushed) and barely touched Brady but the refs were quick to pull out the yellow flag and penalize Baltimore. Tom did his part by hopping on one leg and asking the referee to throw a flag.

At this rate we will be watching "NFL Two Hand Touch" instead of the action packed football we enjoy, which each year seems to get watered down with excess rules to protect quarterbacks. I understand that the league is trying to protect its product but this is getting ridiculous. After the game Ray Lewis was interviewed and as you may expect he was very upset. There is no doubt Ray will be fined after his comments since the league does not allow players to say anything negative even when they are right.

Maybe we will get lucky in the future and have the ability to purchase Direct TV packages for NFL Flag Football for a more reasonable price.
