NFL icon, Tom Brady is under the scanner. The Buccaneers team has not met the expectations of the fans. Despite being placed in a relatively safer group, they have failed to play their best game. Meanwhile, TB12 is not among the best of forms in the new season.

Interestingly, the legend has recorded a few unwanted records. The GOAT has dropped two points below .500 for the first time in his 23-year NFL career. In addition, 3-5 is the worst start of TB12’s journey through 8 games.

Both game stats point out that the legend needs a better show at an individual level and from the team’s point of view. 

Tom Brady is bouncing back, slowly? 

TB12’s lack of form is at a critical time when Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen are leading the QB race. The NFL titan put up decent numbers on Thursday night against the Ravens. He completed 26 of 44 passes for 325 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions. Interestingly, the GOAT did not record a TD in his last two games before this clash.

The future HOF-er made several impressive throws, which included a couple of deep balls to Mike Evans. However, he made a forgettable record in the same game. This was after being sacked three times. It made him the most sacked QB in the history of the NFL. But Brady fans can take relief that he covered more distance and added a TD. It could be a confidence booster for TB12 and Co. as they meet last year’s winners, LA Rams on November 6.
