Brady Rips Herbert's 'Meatball Sub' vs Bills

With the Chargers trailing the Bills, Herbert forced a deep pass to the middle of the field on third-and-5 from the Buffalo 23-yard line. Bills defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson read the play and intercepted it at the 1-yard line, returning it to the 42. Brady called out the poor decision, saying 'There's a safety in the middle of the field. Poor awareness, poor decision, throws him a meatball sub.' biznow.biz

Brady previously criticized the Chargers' red zone decision-making earlier in the game. After Los Angeles reached the Buffalo 1-yard line, penalties forced Herbert into tougher throws. Brady suggested a quarterback sneak instead, saying 'You call a fancy play, lose yards, false start, now these are much higher level of difficulty plays you have to run.' 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.
