Sunday’s matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers was supposed to be one of those games where the Tampa bay Bucs got back on track. Instead, the team took a loss and left them with more questions than answers.
Brady and the Bucs offense didn’t score a touchdown until late in the fourth quarter as Tampa Bay lost 20-18 in Pittsburgh to fall to 3-3 on the season.
During the latest episode of his podcast, titled “Footbahlin with Ben Roethlisberger,” the former QB gave a brutally honest assessment of Brady’s performance and body language.
“I was up there just happy as can be watching the game. This is just my opinion, Tom is the greatest. The Super Bowl rings show it,” Roethlisberger said.
“It didn’t look like he wanted to be out there. Maybe it was the pressure, and he was getting hit and whatever was going on. At one point I looked down there and said, there’s no way he’s enjoying this. No way. I was enjoying being up there watching the game. It just didn’t look fun for him.”
