The Buccaneers’ Twitter handle shared a video of the teammates playing a game of guessing the phase. Brady put on AirPods and tried to lip-read what Wirfs was reading from the cards. TB12 gave some pretty hilarious guesses from his own. One of the crowd’s favorite was the QB’s lip read on the phase ‘Fire the Cannons’, who thought it is, “Finger Nasty”.

The video received quite a few reactions from the fans, who had a good laugh while their playoff fears remain. Since there were multiple comical moments, a fan tried to assess Wirfs’ perspective when Brady leaned in to give him a friendly kiss on the cheek.
