NFL icon Tom Brady and Bucs finished week 2 on a winning note. They downed Saints 20-10 in a spirited contest and are set to meet a challenging Packers side next Sunday. The exciting game saw high drama as TB12 lost his patience and smashed a tablet before getting into a brawl. It even got his teammate Mike Evans ejected. However, the experienced star played down those topics and praised the Saints for their tough fight.

“They have been great. They played awesome out there. Heart is a great friend. Very powerful group of guys and they stood up to it and they did a good job,” the 45-year-old said. The NFL superstar also praised the Bucs’ defense for their contribution to the win.
Tom Brady missed the plot and loses cool
During the third quarter, the GOAT got agitated, went to the sideline, and whipped his tablet to the ground. The tab slam came after Bucs were forced to punt on their opening drive during the second half.
The Bucs’ offense of late hasn’t been successful against the Saints. Several experts point out that it could have led to his frustration. However, it remains to be seen whether the future HOF-er will invite a fine for his behavior.
Earlier in the game, the legendary QB made a gun gesture towards the Saints bench. It did not go well with the players either. The seven-time NFL winner had an ordinary outing. He tossed for 190 yards and had one touchdown.
NFL titan is ready for his next task
After back-to-back wins, the Bucs will eye a hat-trick win as they meet a challenging Packers next week. A-Rod’s men blanked Bears 27-10 in the last game. Tom Brady up against Aaron Rodgers is a serious battle that could excite an NFL fan.
