The Dan and Ninko Show on Twitter, disintegrated the incident for fans to get better insights. Rob Ninkovich was the spectator when Brady and O’Brien got involved in a clash. He reiterated stating, “There was a back of the end zone. He ran like a in cut and Tom threw the ball to him. And when it was an interception and as he’s coming off the field, he yelled like something you gotta go get that. Billi O’ heard saying him and he said, oh, F you Tom, you gotta, that’s a bad throw”

Brady later admitted that he was at fault for the interception, not Underwood, but fans are still divided on who was in the right here.
