Tom Brady: Tampa Bay Buccaneers ‘gotta look at ourselves in the mirror’ following latest loss
Published:
Tom Brady was not happy after how the Tampa Bay Buccaneers played on Sunday. The Bucs lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers 20-18 and Brady knows that the team needs to play better per ESPN’s Jenna Laine.
Brady had 243 yards passing and 1 touchdown in the loss. Tampa Bay didn’t have any turnovers but struggled on third down going 4-for-14. The Bucs also had problems running the ball and were held to 75 yards rushing by the Pittsburgh defense.
We didn’t earn it. We didn’t earn the win. It’s a game of earning it and it’s a game of playing well and performing well and we’re just not doing a good job of that. I don’t think we’ve done it for six weeks. I think we’re all playing less than what we’re capable of. We’ve all gotta look at ourselves in the mirror and figure out why.
During the game, Brady was seen going on a rant with teammates on the Tampa Bay sideline. Tampa Bay’s offense has now scored 21 points or less in 5 of 6 games this season, and it looks like frustrations are starting to mount.
Tampa Bay is now 3-3 following the loss. However, it’s still in first place thanks to its win over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 5.
