Tom Brady is challenging the quarterback elite in the NFL. The gridiron maestro, after critiquing the gameplay earlier this season, has aimed at his brethren under the center. Brady’s latest blitz on social media was fired in response to the suspension of Pittsburgh Steelers’ safety, Damontae Kazee. And he didn’t mince words.

While not exactly drawing a defensive line around Kazee’s actions, Brady decided to make the signal-callers face the music. The quarterback sneaked into the conversation, posing a question about their leadership, but also left them in the pocket, scrambling for answers. Brady’s playbook has always been beyond Xs and Os, and now he’s got the quarterback calling audible thanks to his scrutiny.

Tom Brady conducts a blitzkrieg

Tom Brady didn’t hold back when critiquing the quarterback landscape in the NFL. Blaming the aerial chaos for the bone-crushing hit delivered by Steelers’ Damontae Kazee to airborne Colts‘ wide receiver, Michael Pittman Jr., during Saturday’s clash. Yet, just as quickly as he fired his initial argument, Brady pivoted on Monday, sneaking a defense in favor of Kazee on Instagram.

In a comment, he declared, “Nobody likes seeing players get hurt. But hard hits happen.” Brady unleashed his wisdom, pinpointing the heart of the matter: quarterbacks need to be mindful of where they send the pigskin. He lobbed a truth bomb, asserting, “To put the blame on the defensive player all the time is just flat out wrong. Need better QB play!! It’s not OK for QBs to get your WRs hit because of your bad decisions!”

While the quarterback under scrutiny in this gridiron drama was none other than Gardner Minshew, Brady circled the wagons around the broader issue of responsibility. But depsite Brady’s remarks, it’s Kazee who bears the weight of the consequence, as his season came to an abrupt halt.

Kazee’s safety rules violations land him on sidelines

In Week 15, Damontae Kazee authored a hit that echoed like a thunderous blitz. The Steelers clashed with the Indianapolis Colts, and Michael Pittman found himself on the unwelcome end of a bone-jarring collision. The aftermath? Pittman sidelined with the concussion protocol, and Kazee, well, he got the boot and then an early vacation, courtesy of the NFL.

Monday brought the judgment day announcement: Kazee suspended for the remainder of the season. The league’s decree? “Repeated violations of safety rules,” The board also cited his previous safety violations as a reason. Kazee will have a chance to appeal the suspension, two officers appointed by the board will hear his appeal.

Interestingly, Tom Brady echoed the same sentiments he shared on The Stephen A. Smith Show. The legendary quarterback, never one to hold back in the pocket or the punditry booth, lamented the state of play in the NFL, slapping it with the label of ‘mediocre.’
