The New England Patriots and Denver Broncos will face off in the AFC Championship on Sunday. Peyton Manning isn’t the only one well experienced with facing off against Tom Brady, other members of the Broncos have as well and one has two words to describe him, “cry baby”.
“That would be an accurate statement. I’ve never seen any quarterback look to the referee right after he gets sacked more than Brady,”Broncos defensive lineman Antonio Smith told reporters Monday, according to the Colorado Springs Gazette. “Every time he gets sacked, he looks at the ref like, ‘You see him sack me? Was that supposed to happen? He did it a little hard. Please throw a 15-yard penalty on him. Get him fined.'”
There was a bit of praise in the criticism.
“He’s not going to rattle just because you hit him hard. I’ve tried over the years,” Smith told the Gazette. “That’s what D-linemen think: ‘The harder you hit the quarterback, the better it will make it on the secondary.’
“With Brady, he’s a great competitor. You know it’s coming. He’s going to cry about getting hit, but he’s going to take the hit and keep going.”
