Tom Brady Has an Honest Take on Bucs Loss After Literally Giving Football His Everything

Tom Brady and Buccaneers failed to seize the opportunities and suffered a 20-18 defeat against the Pittsburgh Steelers at the Acrisure Stadium on Sunday. Todd Bowles and his men came into the game as favorites. But they did not live up to the expectations of the fans. 

Meanwhile, TB12 was honest and reflective of the loss against the Steelers. In a presser, he stated the latter performed better and deserved the win. “Steelers did a good job. They tackled well and limited some runs after the catch. You just missed too many apple trees in the red area,” he said. The seven-time Super Bowl winner completed 25 of 40 pass attempts for 243 yards with one touchdown and zero interceptions. He added the Steelers fared better in scoring more points, and hence won the game. 

How did the Bucs lose the game against the Steelers?

Tom Brady and Co. did not light up the offense, while the Steelers upped the ante with their defense. As a result, points were hard to come for the former NFL winners. Their offense scored only one touchdown in the Sunday game. Even though the Bucs scored that touchdown, they failed to convert a 2-point conversion attempt. It happened in the fourth quarter of the game. 

Interestingly, the Steelers’ defense has been hit by injuries throughout the season. But they managed it against Tom Brady’s team. Sunday’s win has moved their record to 2-4 and ended their four-game losing streak. They will look for a repeat show in the Week 7 game against Miami Dolphins in South Beach. 

Tom Brady will eye an improved performance against the Panthers

The NFL GOAT and his team have not set the momentum, six weeks after the start of the campaign. The Bucs still top the NFC South Division. However, they have not yet fired up in the new season. Todd Bowles and Co. won three games and lost three so far. They have not been scoring enough points to take the team forward in the league.

This is one grey area TB12 and his team will have to look up to, as they face the Panthers. Steve Wilks and his men have lost five games out of the six, in NFL 2022. Tom Brady would sense a great opportunity for himself and his team to get back into the points game, with a stunning win.
