Shannon Sharpe finds Tom Brady guilty
Former Denver Broncos TE Shannon Sharpe found Tom Brady guilty of the Buccaneers‘ seventh loss of the season. Speaking on his show, ‘UNDISPUTED’, Sharpe gave a clean chit to the Bucs’ defense, even if they let the Niners score 35 points in the game. And he explained his reasoning for that assessment.
“One hundred percent,” Sharpe said on the question of the amount of blame for Brady in the defeat. “Let me ask you a question. How much credit did you give to anybody else in those comebacks? You didn’t mention the defense when they held them out of the end zone. And they kept holding them to three. They got the ball back for Brady. You didn’t give the defense any credit then. Now you blame the defense,” Sharpe continued.

The Niners keep Brady quiet
Tom Brady came to his native place on the back of a huge comeback win against divisional rivals, the New Orleans Saints. And with the Niners, he faced a third string rookie QB Brock Purdy. The game was a straightforward one for most fans watching. It was Brady’s homecoming night.
But the Niners defense showed why they are the number one in the NFL. They kept Brady out of the end zone for most of the game. The legendary QB ended up throwing two interceptions in the game and a single touchdown. Brady threw 35 completions for 253 yards in the game.

The loss is the seventh for the Buccaneers who now have a 6-7 record after week 14. The franchise is still at the top of the NFC South table, but everybody else gets a little closer to them.
Can the Bucs go back to the winning ways when they take on the Cincinnati Bengals next week?
