Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker TJ Watt was penalized for roughing the passer for tackling Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Flacco during the second quarter of their NFL Week 11 game last November at Acrisure Stadium.
The home crowd was not happy about the flag, and CBS rules analyst Gene Steratore said he thought it was a bad call.
"That's football," Flacco told reporters after the game. "He did a good job. He buried me in the turf."
Flacco had more to say about it during the third season of Netflix's "Quarterback."
"Man, he f---ed me up," Flacco said of Watt's hit. "He knew what he was doing, too. He was like, 'I've got a chance to hit him here. I'm gonna take full advantage. … But that's football. That's the Steelers defense."
In June, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said he didn't think he would watch Flacco on the Netflix show.
