The Green Bay Packers hit the road to take on the Detroit Lions in Motown during Week 7 which included controversial calls that had coach Matt LaFleur biting his tongue in a postgame press conference, before letting his true feelings slip. Packers star pass rusher Micah Parsons called out the refs after the game, and he also got support from Tom Brady on the day as the NFL legend shared his thoughts.

The play happened when Packers defensive tackle Karl Brooks came marauding in on Lions QB Jared Goff. He hit Goff right as he released a pass downfield to tight end Sam LaPorta that was completed. Roughing the passer was called, but Brady didn't see it.

Tom Brady has had enough with the officiating.

"My goodness. What is that?"

"There's no way!"

"It's definitely not roughing the passer." https://t.co/CtETYvi5D3 pic.twitter.com/a0JlJUylJM
