NFL referee Gene Steratore gave Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan a pat on his behind during the first quarter of Sunday's NFL season opener against the New Orleans Saints.
Ryan had just thrown an incomplete pass on 3rd and 5 on the New Orleans 5 yard line, meaning the Falcons would have to finish their offensive drive by settling for a field goal.
Not sure why Steratore felt that was necessary. Wouldn't Ryan get a penalty if he tried to do that to Steratore?
