‘I’m Worried About One Game’: Tom Brady Issues Concerning Statement Ahead of Playoffs

Tom Brady thrashed the Carolina Panthers in his season finale matchup against them. And with that impressive 41-17 win, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers proceed to the playoffs with the No. 2 seed in NFC. Although it was not much of an ideal situation for Tom Brady as he said that, he cannot control the outcome of other teams during his post-game press conference.

Yet he seemed contented to claim the two seed, and he is looking forward to his playoff run. However, with the Bucs already going through a receiver crisis heading towards the playoffs, another big blow is received by the franchise in the season finale. Cyril Grayson Jr. was pulled out of the matchup due to a hamstring injury and did not return for the remainder of the game.

Grayson was an integral part of the Bucs offense in his previous two appearances with the franchise. His injury could prove to be fatal for the Tom Brady-led offense. Furthermore, it is not specified what the extent of his injury was. Or if he will return for the playoffs.

Tom Brady heading towards the playoffs

Even after losing Grayson Jr., Tom Brady continued to stretch the points lead against the Panthers. The 44-year-old has delivered on most occasions this season and feels determined to lead his team in the playoffs. When asked about getting the No. 2 seed, the veteran quarterback replied that he would not worry about the first-week bye.

“I’m not worried about two games from now,” Brady said. “I’m worried about one game from now which is the Eagles. I don’t care if the Rams would have won. That’s alright we still got the Eagles, and that’s going to be the biggest game of the season. And if we win whoever we play wherever we play. We’re still going and that’s what we gotta do.”

As the Bucs head towards their second straight playoff season with Tom Brady, they still have to go up against the best of the season whilst being crippled on the receiving side. Will the Bucs be able to make the Super Bowl just as they did last season?
