Tom Brady is a passionate football nerd, besides being one of the greatest to play the game itself. And over the years, Brady has made numbers look important by holding almost every major quarterback record there is to own. Brady has spoken highly about Eagles QB Jalen Hurts before. However, in a recent press meet when Tom was asked a question about Hurts, he didn’t have the nicest response initially.

Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts has been nothing short of phenomenal this season, leading his franchise to their third-ever 13-win season. And they can create history tonight with a win over the New Orleans Saints, along with clinching the NFC East Divisional title. However, Brady was not as impressed with Jalen’s numbers. In particular, one specific play that Hurts has excelled in this season. The QB Sneak.

When the reporter compared Brady’s career-high 18 quarterback sneaks from 2011 to Jalen Hurts’ NFL record 27 from this season, Tampa Tom played it as cool as anyone could imagine. He mockingly said “wow” at every turn. “Sick data,” the seven-time Super Bowl champion said to the reporter. Fans reacted to the video on Twitter.

Fans thought the former New England Patriots QB’s 7 Super Bowl rings gives him the right to react in any way he seems appropriate.

Tom Brady was more impressed with the QB Sneak play than the individuals involved

The QB sneak has off-late become a thing of assurance for 1-yard advancements on 3rd or 4th downs. Even Tom Brady knows how hard it is for opposition defenses to stop. Brady even discussed the play with 3x Defensive Player of the league J. J. Watt in the middle of a snap during the Arizona Cardinals-Tampa Bay Buccaneers game.

And after all the joking was done, 15x Pro Bowler Brady showered praise on the Eagles’ efficiency when it comes to the high win-rate offensive play. “It’s a great tool to have. And i Like the way they are doing it. They are kinda making it like a rugby scrim. A little bit. Putting a lot of bodies in there, which is kind of a new take on it. It’ll be interesting to see how defenses start defending that,” TB12 added.
