The Refs must have got the memo from the league no more downward chops on helmet and facemask of QB. Hell Andy might have written league because teams were feasting on Pat a few times every game.

The rule, I believe, is that a defender can't make contact with the QB's head/neck area, period. Which makes the second one just a head-scratcher because Frank literally grabbed Brady's throat area. And Frank doesn't do stupid stuff like that. We've seen him contort himself at times just to avoid making
any contact with a QB once the ball is gone so he won't draw a flag. So why did he do it there? Puzzling.
