Coach Todd Bowles Says Tampa Can’t Depend on Tom Brady’s Heroics to Win Games

Todd Bowles and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers look nowhere near to what they were two years ago. Currently, at 3-5, the Buccaneers have suffered three straight losses. That’s something seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady hasn’t experienced in a while.

The Buccaneers have been struggling with their offense this year. Former defensive coordinator and current head coach Todd Bowles will have to put in a lot of work.

Bowles has spoken about the team and their strategy in a critical light, but are words enough for reassuring of a comeback?

Todd Bowles shares his thoughts

In conversation with the Buccaneers Radio Network, Bowles spoke about the Bucs’ offense against the Ravens.

“He [Brady] could have made some better throws,” he said, adding that they could have made better adjustments down the field. He also stated that the offensive line could have been blocked better.

While pointing out their weaknesses, Bowles also mentioned that he liked the team’s effort against the Ravens. He said that although they played hard, they didn’t play smart enough. Bowles also said that the coaches understand where the team can get better.

Now, the only remaining aspect is the display of their efforts on the field.

Tom Brady’s troubles

Tom Brady is not new to criticism. In his 23rd season with the league, he has seen the best and the worst of them. But, it’s not often that one sees the seven-time Super Bowl champion criticized for not doing enough on the field.

Brady‘s mediocre start to the season has left fans alarmed. Brady’s uncharacteristic outbursts and a slump in performance have contributed to the team’s overall performance.

This season, more than ever, his personal and professional lives clashed. Brady and his ex-wife Gisele Bündchen were in the spotlight because of their marital issue. The quarterback and model finally announced the finalization of their divorce on October 28.

Can Tom Brady cause a turnaround this season? Bucs fans would love nothing more than the return of their former glory.

The Bucs will take on the Los Angeles Rams in their upcoming game. If what Bowles says about understanding where their flaws lie is true, the Bucs may stand chance at breaking their losing streak.
