Aaron Rodgers Drops ‘I’m Not Bulls*tting’ Comment As He Goes Off on NFL Referees in Aftermath of Tom Brady’s Controversial ‘Roughing’ Penalty

NFL titan Aaron Rodgers outlined his take on NFL referees during the latest episode of Pat McAfee Show. The 38-year-old spoke on the backdrop where Tom Brady was awarded a roughing penalty against the Falcons. It was deemed a controversial call, and it became a game-changer one for Tom Terrific and Co. to register a 21-15 victory. 

A-Rod admitted it is a tough job to be a referee. He thought so because the game happens at a quick pace and it is difficult to keep track of everything. “It’s a tough job. I’m not bulls*tting. Everything happens in fractions of seconds and you have to make decisions that could impact the games on what you are seeing,” the iconic star said.

Aaron Rodgers explains how referees’ calls may affect games

The superstar said he does not think the NFL will kick-start the decision review process. He added the NFL might not be willing to make many changes. The Packers’ star QB added that the decision might end up like how it ended up with pass interference, in the past.

The NFL star added one decision can affect the result of the entire game. “Because, like I said, one call refereed and interpreted a certain way changed the review process on every other play. I just think that’s what’s going to happen when you have a subjective call,” he added. 

What A-Rod told McAfee, previously happened during the Buccaneers’ game against Atlanta. The Falcons would have gained an upper hand, had the penalty not been awarded. However, the decision went against their favor, and also the game.
