On Wednesday during his weekly press conference, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady had nothing but good things to say about Tampa Bay Buccaneers safety Dashon Goldson.

Brady heaped praise on Goldson, saying that would try to play the game like Goldson if he were a safety.

At first, it looked like Brady wouldn’t even see Goldson. He was suspended for the game following his second helmet-to-helmet hit of the season. However, Goldson appealed the suspension and the league overturned the suspension and instead, simply fined Goldson $100,000.

Another superstar quarterback, Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints, doesn’t feel the same way as Brady.

“He’s had a lot of those,’’ Saints quarterback Drew Brees told the New Orleans media via Pat Yasinskas of ESPN.com Wednesday. “He certainly has no regard for the rules in the middle. He’s going after guys’ heads. You can see it.”

Brees and the Saints rallied for a last second field goal victory over Goldson and the Buccaneers last week. Brees was 26-of-46 for 322 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions in the victory.
