Bruh, OBVIOUS wasn't the word BLATANT was! Brady cocked his right arm back to throw the ball to a receiver, then changed his mind, brought the ball down and gripped it with his left hand. Charles Woodson came on a corner blitz and knocked the ball out of his hands as soon as he pulled it down. The ref signaled fumble and it was over. Then the replay ref buzzed him to check the play and they overturned the call, which led to NE tying the game and winning in sudden death. They say the rule clearly states that if a quaterback brings his arm back to throw the ball, changes his mind and doesn't tuck the ball, then it is an incomplete pass. Now every quaterback is gonna know that all they have to do is move their arm forward and hold the ball out there and drop it if they are going to get sacked, it will be an incomplete pass.
