The Bucs had a tough start in the 2022-23 season

Speaking of the Bucs, they had a terrible season so far. After losing in the divisional round against the Rams last year, the Bucs are on the verge of missing the playoffs this season. However, they got their revenge against the Rams this Sunday, as they beat them in the last seconds to reach the top spot in the NFC South division.

Moreover, Brady showed his clutch genes to pull the Bucs out of the mud. However, the Bucs still have a losing record in this division with 4 wins and 5 losses. If they qualify for the playoffs, it will be nothing sort of a miracle for the team and Brady.
