The Week 2 game against the Green Bay Packers certainly did not turn out the way Tampa Bay Buccaneers expected it to be. Because of the absence of several wide receivers, the teams could not achieve more points. Green Bay dominated with a score of 14-12. This was the second win that Aaron Rodgers culminated against the NFL GOAT Tom Brady. Surely, Brady’s superfans wanted him to crush A-Rod’s team. However, it looks like the seven-time Super Bowl-winning elite is content with losing the game to his rival QB.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Dak Prescott-led Dallas Cowboys in Week 1. Then proceeded to defeat the New Orleans Saints in a drama-filled game in Week 2. But the Bucs could not bring their A-game against the Pack.

Prior to Brady’s late 13-play, 89-yard touchdown drive, the Packers’ defense stopped Tampa Bay to just two field goals. However, the attempt to force the OT was unsuccessful. Also, Tom Brady accepted that the offense of the team needs to perform better.

In his ‘Let’s Go!’ podcast, California Cool coolly described how losing against the Green Bay Packers was not a big deal. “It’s not, you know, obviously horrible. There’s only a couple of teams that are better than that, but we know the standard for offense is much higher, and we’ve got to go out there and perform at a much higher level of we expect to score more points and to become a consistently dependable high scoring offence,” said the lead starting QB. The other teams who start Week 4 with a 2-1 record are the Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Browns, Kansas City Chiefs, etc.

Why did Tom Brady appear complacent about losing the game?

After his upsetting loss to the Packers, the 45-year-old QB will face the Kansas City Chiefs, who also stand last a 2-1 record, in Week 4. Since many speculate this is the last season that Brady will play, this could also be a retirement tour. The future Hall of Famer signed a 10-year long with Fox Sports as lead NFL analyst for $375 million.

He retired in the off-season only to resume his position with the Bucs as the lead shot-caller. Although Tom Brady has kept everybody in confusion, many things point to the fact that this may be the last season he may play. However, for now, fans will have to witness if Brady loses to Patrick Mahomes and his Co. or wins over the young prodigy.
