Would a roughing the passer penalty been called had it been Tom Brady?
Washington Redskins defensive tackle Chris Baker believes the referees missed a roughing the passer penalty on Carson Wentz late in the Philadelphia Eagles’ 28-23 loss to the New York Giants on Sunday.
Here’s what Baker had to say.
Referees caused the Eagles to possibly loose thought any contact to the QB head is roughing the passer ???

The play in question came on 3rd-and-10 on the Eagles’ final drive when Giants linebacker Jonathan Casillas made contact with Carson Wentz’s helmet.
I’ve definitely seen worse roughing the passer penalties called.
