After the New England Patriots finished off their 25 point comeback against the Atlanta Falcons for the Super Bowl championship, an Instagram user (name withheld due to expletive) posted a screenshot picture to his account of Brady catching the eye of FOX TV cameras when he appeared to be putting his head down in despair following throwing an interception for a touchdown just before halftime.

“I need to know what prayer Brady said so I can use it later on in life” was the caption chosen by and to his surprise a day later, Brady responded with a funny but real comment that brought back memories of a darker time in his career.

Look at Tom Brady going in on the Instagram comment section. Awesome. #Patriots #SuperBowl pic.twitter.com/L4q9OIXqyn

“Hey so remember that whole David Tyree thing from a few years ago..”, Brady jokes was the prayer.

The last four Super Bowl’s Brady has played in he has had to endure a plethora of ridiculous circus catches.

Both David Tyree (Super Bowl XLII) and Mario Manningham (Super Bowl XLVI) wild receptions led to championships for the Giants, but Jermaine Kearse’s (Super Bowl XLIX) and Julio Jones’ (Super Bowl LI) the Patriots were able to overcome.

Of course, Julian Edelman may have beaten them all.
