Tom Brady, Buccaneers dropped their third consecutive match in the 2022-23 regular season as the Baltimore Ravens rallied past them with a tally of 27-22 on Thursday Night. With a team which is struggling with injuries, it seems like the offensive voids of the 7xSuper Bowl Champ are out in the open for the first time in 23 years.
Lamar Jackson, who considers Tom Brady as the GOAT, led his team in the second team as the Bucs fall to 3-5 after the conclusion of their Week 8 showdown. It is safe to say that the 45-year-old veteran QB looked human all night long. Yet his final line wasn’t bad – 26 for 44 for 325 yards and also a TouchDown. It did allow Colin Cowherd to point where and how Brady is lacking
Colin Cowherd wrote in his latest tweet, “Lamar Jackson beats Tom Brady in Tampa. Make all the excuses you want. Tom looks old, skinny, and disconnected from his head coach. See ya soon.”
Even when Tom Brady had a decent stat line, those who witnessed the live action would agree that he missed several key throws. From an underthrew pass to Mike Evans, Brady missed Kyle Rudolph in the end zone, and got lucky when the Baltimore Ravens dropped potential end zone picks on two difference occasions. Moreover, the 7xSuper Bowl Champ also had a handful of passes knocked down at the line of scrimmage.
Furthermore, Tom Brady was also sacked thrice, bringing his career tally to 555, which is a new NFL record. That being said, this only goes onto show how badly the Bucs need to add weapons on their offensive unit. Are things going to change? Or have the sufferings for Brady just begun? Remains to be seen.
