Fans wasted no time in applauding TB12 and solidifying his status as the GOAT. After weeks of making their disappointment regarding his mediocre performance known, fans were quick to crown Brady king and reiterated the reasons why he’s the greatest to do it.
The return of Tom Brady
Did having a full cast of wide receivers to back the QB up for the first time in a while play into this victory? The presence of Mike Evans, Julio Jones, and Chris Godwin was definitely an additional safety net for the Bucs’ offense.
Twitter exploded with adoration for the quarterback. The seven-time Super Bowl champion threw a game-winning touchdown with nine seconds on the clock. Trailing by 4 points, the Bucs desperately needed this victory. Who better to redeem them in their most dire hour than the GOAT himself?

This fan had much to say about TB12
I’ve been making an effort to catch every Tom Brady game this year after his initial retirement, as we will probably never see another like him. Glad I caught this one where he displayed another moment of Brady Magic 🪄
Absolute beast and of course the 🐐🐐🐐

Despite the majorly positive reaction, there were skeptics who disavowed what other fans were saying.
Brady makes history
For a large chunk of their game versus the Rams, it looked like the Bucs were going to take their fourth consecutive loss.
It was Derion Kendrick’s pass-interference penalty that gave way to Otton’s winning reception. Even though this was not Brady‘s best performance with 280 yards and one touchdown, he made NFL history. TB12 became the first quarterback in the league’s history with more than 100,000 passing yards.

The presence of prominent receivers to make a good supporting cast may also have caused this elevation in the Bucs’ performance.
But, the Rams were dominant throughout the game. Their defense restricted the Bucs for the most part before Brady’s fourth-quarter magic hit them with a touchdown.
