In his weekly podcast, Jim Gray asked him what exactly was going on in his mind at the moment. The NFL MVP winner explained, “As a quarterback, you know, naturally you’re the one that they once listened to. And I think that you always have the ability to, you know, have the perspective on kind of where you’re at in the moment of the game.” Basically, Tom Brady tried to inspire his fellow mates.
Brady struggled against the Steelers in the first half, going just 10-for-21 for 110 yards. And without touchdowns or interceptions, with Pittsburgh leading 10-9 at the break. In the first half, the lead passer was also hit twice and sacked once. The sack was on third-and-goal from the 4-yard line.
