Did Ndamukong Suh hit leave Tom Brady 'pretty sore' after loss?
A whipsaw hit sent Tom Brady's legs one direction and his upper body the other, leaving him face down in the turf.
Brady rose -- slowly -- but the hits kept coming from the Miami Dolphins, who beat New England 20-10 on Sunday and prevented the Patriots from clinching the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs.
With the Pats anxious to protect Brady's health, he threw a season-low 21 passes, and even so he was lucky to make it through the game in one piece. He was sacked twice and endured at least half a dozen knockdowns, including three on one series.
"I'm pretty sore," Brady said, "but I'll be all right."
In the video above, FOX Sports NFL analyst Mike Pereira explains why the hit from Ndamukong Suh -- the likely culprit to Brady's new pain -- wasn't flagged. Brady was sacked twice in the game.
