The NFL’s first regular-season game in Germany went relatively well, with the Buccaneers beating the Seahawks, 21-16, but there appeared to be some issues with the playing field. There were moments in the game when players couldn’t keep their footing, including a key moment in the second half where Tom Brady fell while running a pass route, leading to a Buccaneers turnover.
On Monday, one of the veteran players to appear in the game criticized the conditions. Seahawks linebacker Bruce Irvin tweeted his displeasure with the field after returning home.
