Pereira: Peterson should have been ejected

The Arizona Cardinals had a nice day in New York on Sunday, taking down the host Giants 25-14. But star cornerback Patrick Peterson has seen better days, getting called for three penalties.

After one, Peterson argued a little too passionately for the liking of FOX's guru of football officiating, Mike Pereira, making contact with the official.

Peterson was not flagged. But he should expect to be a little lighter in the wallet come Tuesday.
