Tom Brady and the Buccaneers have finally shown signs of a return. Tampa Bay lost three games in a row before ending their streak against the LA Rams the other night. While their head coach appreciated the team’s success, Tom Brady was still not satisfied.

 

Head Coach Todd Bowles had nothing but praise for the effort that the Buccaneers put into the game. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the Rams 16-13 but Tom Brady seems to think the level of performance needs improvement and the entire unit needs to be more than just average.

Where did TB12 and Todd Bowles differ in their analysis of the game?

Tom Brady is a five-time Super Bowl MVP and has more Super Bowl appearances than the Buccaneers have of playoff. So his expectations from his offense are going to be understandably high. TB12 engineered the game-winning drive with a minute left on the clock. Even with the 16-13 win over the LA Rams, Brady felt that there is a lot of room for improvement.

Scotty Miller missed a crucial catch in the end zone from Brady in the ending drive. That could have been costly for the Bucs if Tom Terrific didn’t push ahead for the touchdown pass. “That’s probably the most embarrassing part of our team is our effort level on game day, and that’s something we better fix,” 15x Pro Bowler said.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles had a more lenient assessment of Sunday’s game. The head coach, and former free safety for the Redskins and San Francisco 49ers, heaped praises on the team’s winning performance. Bowles thought that it was not the team’s effort that was lacking, but its execution. “It was huge [to beat the Rams]. After losing three weeks in a row, you get very sour, and you have a sour taste in your mouth,” Todd said.

Can Tom Brady and Co keep the winning run on in Munich?

Tom Brady is struggling with his offense. The Super Bowl LV winner has only 10 touchdowns into week 10 of this NFL season. The absence of his friend and legendary tight end Rob Gronkowski is haunting Brady right now. Although tight end Cade Otton made some excellent plays down the middle, including the game-winning touchdown from Brady, the young athlete from Washington college is not at Gronk’s elite level.
