He was outside of the pocket. Is the NFL rule different than college or did they just blow that call?

Tom Brady already scored points on his first play. This is going to be a blowout.

NFL rules, "Intentional grounding will not be called when a passer, while out of the pocket and facing an imminent loss of yardage, throws a pass that lands at or beyond the line of scrimmage, even if no offensive player(s) have a realistic chance to catch the ball (including if the ball lands out of bounds over the sideline or end line)."

This is a bad call.

Are you guys sure he was outside the pocket? I didn't see the replay, but I thought I saw the DE on the other side of him. Did they blitz a linebacker or something, or does my memory just suck?

60-1 Vegas odds that the Patriots first play from scrimmage would be a safety.

replay showed he was clearly inside the tackles.

He wasn't outside the pocket. Not even close really.
