Shannon Sharpe furiously mentioned, “Yes! Because when T.O. did the exact same thing, when Dez Bryant did the exact same thing, all you gotta say that he is malcontent, is destructive. Tom Brady throws a tablet, he yells and screams. You criticize Aaron Rodgers for doing the exact same thing. Criticizing, okay? criticizing!”

Skip Bayless continued to defend Tom Brady. He said that it is justified for the quarterback to get frustrated as he won seven Super Bowls. However, Sharpe stated that just because he achieved such a feat does not mean he can get off with it. Both of them went back and forth on a verbal note.

The Buccaneers vs. Saints showdown saw a frustrated TB12 tossing off a Microsoft Surface in the first half. After that moment, he got into some trash talk with Marshon Lattimore. It led to Mike Evans knocking him down and then getting ejected from the play.

Tom Brady is unhappy over Mike Evans’ suspension

The Superdome scuffle between Tom Brady and Marshon Lattimore led to Mike Evans coming outta nowhere to protect the QB. The WR is now facing a one-game suspension and will be unavailable for the Bucs vs Packers game. While the quarterback accepted some blame for the incident on Sunday, he believes Evans’ punishment was unnecessary.

During the Let’s Go! Podcast, Brady mentioned, “Mike knows how I feel about him. So in the end, emotions are a part of sports. Sometimes they boil over, and they obviously did, and it’s an unfortunate circumstance. I don’t think it deserved any type of suspension; I think that’s ridiculous. Hopefully, we can move past it and get to a better place.”

TB12 has a big target on his back at Week 3. Without Mike Evans, the Bucs’ O-Line could be in jeopardy. Will he tackle them? It is subject to witness.
