Twitter goes off on Brady for dropped wide-open pass
He almost had it.
The New England Patriots went with a trick play in the second quarter of the Super Bowl, one that resulted in Tom Brady finding himself on the receiving end of a Danny Amendola pass.
Brady was wide-open, but he couldn't quite make the catch.
Twitter wasn't too kind to Brady's attempt at moonlighting as a wide receiver.

There were also plenty of examples of QBs successfully pulling off what Brady couldn't:
