Clear not a clothesline...otherwise Brees neck wouldn't be jutting forward...if he was actually hitting the neck.
Drew was hit in the chest then dragged down by the neck. It was the neck dragging that drew the flag.
ETA: after watching the replay again...Drew was hit in the chest and neck then drug down by the neck.

This alone is worth a flag.

This. The gif conviently doesnt show the rest of the play where the dude tried to decapitate Breesus.
Totally legit call per the rules.

he has to be more careful where's he's hitting. Drew wasn't ready for that hit

Unfortunately for conspiracy fans, the lone gunman still makes the most sense. But I swear I saw a puff of smoke come out of Brees arse.

The defender is responsible for the QB being ready to take a hit? That's a new one.

What I meant is, I can understand if Drew saw it coming and dropped down. I couldn't fault Brooks for that, but since he had a free shot, Brooks has to be more heady and aim better so as not to draw the flag.

The defender is responsible for where he hits a player. Drew didn't see it coming. He was a still target.

I think what people are missing is that it doesnt have to be a direct hit to the neck? Which is hard to get to with the pads and helmet and such. The rule is defined as the head or the neck AREA.
That would obviously include the collarbone and the area immediatly around the opening of the shoulderpads.

Well, it isn't clear to ESPN. They have 'controversial flag' 'coming up' about the game.
Berman all fat and butthurt.

They're drumming up drama for ratings.

It should say 'controversial comment'.
The call isn't controversial!

his neck looks like a turtle...wow can't beleive he wasn't hurt. I know he was bleeding from the mouth. let's hope he's ok internally. Gonna need a good staff getting him ready by Thurs. night

there was also the blantant facemask throwing him to the ground that conveniently gets cut from the tv playback and subsequent bitch session.

I'll add this here

I heard one of the espn idiots say that "one thing you have to remember is that he is only about 6 feet tall". So, I guess this rule should only apply to tall quarterbacks?????
