July 15, 2021: Bucs quarterback Tom Brady may have played with an ailing knee for all of last season, but he still threw 50 touchdowns and nabbed a seventh Super Bowl ring. - ZUMAm67_ 0125661617st Copyright: xDouglasxR.xCliffordx
Tom Brady came out of retirement only to secure his 8th in total and 2nd Super Bowl with Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 202-23 season. However, after a promising start it seems like the 45-year-old Quarterback cannot get his team over the victory line. The latest of his team’s loss came against a depleted Pittsburgh Steelers’ side, who has themselves been struggling to make an impact against in-sync teams.
As Bucs dropped yet another game and are on the risk of dropping places in their respective AFC division, Michael Irvin knows who is to blame for such an abysmal show. It is none other than the 7xSuper Bowl Champ – Tom Brady.
Irvin stated on latest episode of First Take, “Tom Brady is intact. This Buccaneers defense is intact. You don’t have a rash of injuries or anything like that. Like these other teams have Tampa Bay right now as constructed is as good as they’re going to get. And they’re going to these problems. That’s why I’m more concerned with that loss.”
Given that Tom Brady surely doesn’t have the best of mindsets with his marriage already on the verge to be ended with Gisele Bundchen. Moreover, with the offensive line not being able to get onto the same page, the Bucs are only depending on their defensive prowess to win games.
Irvin added, “Green Bay has to be sitting home, saying, ‘We got to go find another receiver.’ They’re going to get in there and be in the sweepstakes for Odell Beckham Jr. They’re going to try to improve. Tampa, they’re not thinking that. They’re saying, ‘No, no, we have everything.’ And they are looking like this. It has to be Tom Brady with where they are right now.”
