The Buccaneers are currently placed atop the NFC South with hopes of a playoff berth after early jitters this season. However, Tom Brady will have to grind more in order to make that happen. Meanwhile, the team’s offensive coordinator Bryon Leftwich broke his silence on the criticisms he faced while the team was underperforming.

Tom Brady became Mr Worldwide after he sealed a thumping victory against the Seahawks in Germany. With this performance, he became the only quarterback to win NFL games outside the United States in three different countries.

He had previously made his mark in England and Mexico, and now this year’s heroics elevated his greatness to an international level. Before avenging his loss against the Rams, the Buccaneers’ offense was in a miserable situation.

Although Brady was constantly targeted, there were questions about Leftwich’s credibility as an effective OC who has been on the job since 2019. Critics shot arrows at his job security. However, the former NFL quarterback remained unfazed and knew how to deal with these situations much better than anyone.

While the team got back on track, he called out such critics and shared the mantra for not losing his cool. “Once I got cut as a player, I couldn’t get lower than that. I stopped worrying about what people think. . . .” Leftwich said in a recent press conference.

“When you’re losing, people get to say what they want. We earned that. It is what it is. We’re just trying to win football games. We’ll get to the end, then we can say whatever we want and we’ll add ’em up at the end and see where we’re at. We can handle anything that comes our way,” he explained with extreme pride. Indeed, having a quarterback like Brady makes the process easier.

Tom Brady vows to play much better

This season, the Buccaneers passer had to make several sacrifices and suffered immense setbacks. His passion for the game took a toll on his married life, and early losses spiced up the agony.

However, Brady had no intentions to budge back. In fact, he bounced back with back-to-back victories hoping for an eighth title. “There’s a lot of football to play, and we’ve got to play better. That’s just the reality of the situation we’re in,” Brady said a few days ago.

The Browns are next up for the Buccaneers, and it will be interesting to see if they can improve their season record and maintain the No 1 position.
