  • We've all talked so much about Tom Brady this year.

  • Not all of it has been great.

  • At the end of the day, he threw 43 touchdown passes and his age 43 season.

  • How would you describe this year for Tom Brady?

  • You know what Tom Brady was slept on, and I think that's hard to say, right, because we love him so much.

  • We talked about them all off season, and then they kind of hit a point in this season where the Tampa Bay Buccaneers We weren't the best team in the NFC like many thought they might be where Tom Brady wasn't necessarily putting up the numbers that we thought would keep him in the M V P conversation.

  • And then you finish with plus 40 and then you get your team into the playoffs.

  • You went 11 games when you look at all these things that Tom Brady is done, all these showing you all years, I could still do this.

  • Y'all that the dude that's the goat, that's still me.

  • But that's when he's clean.

  • No greeny.

  • What happens when it gets a little monkey?

  • What happens when there's some people around his feet when the phantoms start flying in the backfield.

  • That wasn't the same Tom Brady that Tom Brady falls toe a bottom half of the league quarterback.

  • So where does he go in the playoffs?

  • The reason he's the goat is the way that his game rises and the level of his concentration heightens when the playoff starts.

  • Well, that's why he's here.

  • And that's where they are When people get around his feet when the pocket gets money, does he turn into the Tom Brady we saw this year, or does he dig deep and find that championship medal?

  • He's gonna have to do that to get out of the NFC?

  • We've seen him play when things are great, when he has paradise or, like Dan says euphoria.

  • But what happens when he gets ugly?

  • That would tell the tale of this season for Tom Brady.

  • We'll have to start for him.

  • If he's gonna go there at Washington, that's where it will begin.

  • And then if the seeds were to hold, he would then have to go to Green Bay.

  • Go ahead, Dan.

  • Why you got why you gotta poop on the man?

  • Why you got to talk about the negative R C 43 touchdowns and age of 43.

  • I know you were like, but, you know, if they get pressure on him, he's not okay anymore.

  • Like Come on, Did I tell a lie?

  • Did I tell a lie?

  • But can can we save that for Tuesday or culture Wednesday?

  • Can we talk about like, can we celebrate the fact that do Tom Brady?

  • Max Kellerman has got a rough morning, No doubt about it.

  • Tom Brady is 43 through for 43 touchdowns in the NFL, and he's a hot as any quarterback going into the playoffs.

  • I mean, think about this in many ways, reinvented himself this season.

  • I mean, he's never been notorious for the deep ball, and his deep ball has been fantastic this year.

  • When you're right, RC, like when they keep him clean.

  • I said this beginning the year when they keep Tom Brady clean, he's as good as any quarterback in football.

  • He's as accurate as any quarterback in football.

  • His arm is is good when it's needed in those 20 to 25 yard chunk throws in a clean pocket as good as any quarterback of football.

  • And I think those are the questions that you're gonna have to ask yourself when you play Tampa Bay because they're not changing.

  • Bruce Arians isn't changing the offense.

  • You gotta score like 35 to beat them.

  • And can you get after Tom Brady?

  • Because if you can't get after Tom Brady and you don't keep the ball in front of you on your back end, it is going to be incredibly difficult to beat this Tampa Bay offense because they're as hot as anybody going into the playoffs racks.

  • I'm trying to read the smile on your face.

  • Well, first off, I want to say when you look at Ryan Clark in Daniel right there, they look like twins.

  • You got this work and you got all that kind of stuff.

  • I know I couldn't tell who was who, but I'll say this e mean to Ryan's point about Tom Brady, Man the goat, He is this the best big game player I mean we've ever seen, and he does it every single year.

  • How many times he would get Ah, below average team to the Super Bowl is it's just crazy.

  • But when I look at a thing that's scary to me is it seems like Bruce Arians and Tom Brady are finally on the same page, and that's a scary thing.

  • And by the way, can we give Tampa credit?

  • Not just for bringing in in Tom Brady and Gronkowski and all that?

  • How about the pickup of Antonio Brown?

  • Do they not look brilliant now that they bring in Antonio Brown, who's still one of the best receivers in the league for this exact reason?

  • Unfortunately, Mike Evans go down, Antonio Brown goes right in it.

  • It makes no difference.

  • And eso to me.

  • I got to give credit to Tampa Bake for that pick up.

  • Well, give it to Brady.

  • Brady is the executive of the year for making that pick, right that there's no question that was a T B 12 move.

  • Thank you for watching ESPN on YouTube for live streaming sports and premium content.

We've all talked so much about Tom Brady this year.
