Falcons' Dean Pees listens to wife, won't risk fine over Tom Brady roughing call

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Dean Pees usually has something to say about almost anything. Ask him a question, he'll give a thought out, verbose answer.

Unless, that is, you ask the Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator about the roughing the passer penalty his star defensive lineman, Grady Jarrett, received on a critical third down late in last Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Ask Pees about that -- as he was during his weekly media availability on Thursday -- and you'll get a long, cold, serious stare. And then very few words to follow up on it.
