Brady Criticizes Herbert's 'Meatball Sub' Throw

Tom Brady didn't hold back in criticizing Justin Herbert's decision-making during the Chargers' loss to the Bills, calling the quarterback's fourth-quarter interception a 'meatball sub'.

Tom Brady called out Justin Herbert's poor awareness and decision-making during the Chargers' 23-20 loss to the Bills. Facing third-and-5 from Buffalo's 23, Herbert forced a deep pass that was intercepted by C.J. Gardner-Johnson, returning it to the 42-yard line. Brady labeled it a 'meatball sub' due to the safety positioned in the middle of the field. sportnewz.click

This was the second time Brady criticized the Chargers' play-calling. Earlier in the third quarter, Los Angeles had reached Buffalo's 1-yard line before penalties forced them backward. Brady suggested they should have gone with a quarterback sneak instead of a 'fancy play.' Herbert finished 20-of-34 for 226 yards with a touchdown and an interception as the Bills improved to 3-0 while the Chargers dropped to 0-3.
