Brady goes off on the Team
 
Quote:

Brady wasn’t filled with holiday spirit after the win. An irate Brady could be heard upbraiding the team in the locker room following the game, with several expletives mixed in for emphasis. Multiple sources who were in the locker room confirmed that the franchise quarterback lit into his team after a lackluster performance.
Quote:

This was like Larry Bird calling his teammates “a bunch of sissies” after Game 3 of the 1984 NBA Finals. Don’t expect any Patriots to clothesline the Dolphins next Sunday, but when a superstar delivers such an explicit message the team can’t ignore it.

Tom Brady scolds team after 23-16 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars - Sports - The Boston Globe

I am sure this is a little over dramatic. But Brady's presser, was a classic in not happy.

The gist of the article was time is ticking on Brady and he knows it, yada yada ya. Either way Brady was non to happy with said performance..

(Mods if this needs to be moved move)

Brady lit into the offense on the sidelines. And he should have. This team sleepwalked through the first quarter and were inconsistent for the rest of the game. I know they had a lot of players out on defense and others playing out of position, but this was a lifeless, mistake filled game.

I listened to the radio for much of the first quarter because I was in my car. Right off the bat, Zo said that the team was flat in pregame workouts and it showed going into the first quarter. Seemed that they either felt this was an easy win or they weren't playing for anything.

Geez I am really not looking forward to his retirement wish he plays for 10 more years.

Watched it with a friend who said, "Brady should just come out to his presser and say 'what the f--- just happened?' and walk off." I sort of agreed.

I'm really just glad we won, but it was a putrid performance from virtually everyone, including Brady. A little off topic, but I've become convinced that even ex-players aren't able to predict games much better than fans. I listened to the WEEI pre-game with Dale Arnold, Matt Chatham and Kevin Faulk. All 3 predicted scores in the 45-55 to 10-20 range. And that happens all the time.

You mean the guy who threw two ints in the first quarter (the same guy who was throwing passes to his receivers shoe tops many times last week) lit into everyone else for not playing well?

Tom, whatever happened to leading by example?

Everyone has had stretches lately where they've played like crap...and that includes Brady. He needs to let the coaches do the upbrading and needs to accept it alongside his teammates or he's risking coming off like a primadonna.

I hope Brady looked in the mirror.

Only one of the incidents of Brady berating his teammates was actually shown on TV yesterday. He yelled at his OL too. Injuries or not injuries, this team is not picking a good time to play some of its worst football of the season.

Re: Brady goes off on the Team
 
The two of you must be joking. Brady's always been pathologically self-critical. What's he supposed to do to illustrate that, yell at himself?
