Tom Brady bashes Bucs teammates during loss to Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - Tampa Buccaneers legend Tom Brady was caught on camera roasting his teammates for their performance during a tough 20-18 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the NFL.
Tampa's road game to the 1-4 Pittsburgh Steelers was projected to be a cakewalk for Brady and the Buccaneers.
Instead, they struggled to move the ball all game on Sunday against the heavily injured Steelers team, now sitting at 3-3 in the season and struggling far more than expected.
Trailing 10-6 in the second quarter, seven-time Super Bowl champion Brady was seen on the sidelines shouting at his offensive line, as their failures and frustrations continued to build.
"You’re so much better than you're f****** playing," the 45-year-old superstar quarterback yelled.
While often times Brady's fiery attitude served as a motivation, it still wasn't enough to shake off Pittsburgh's malaise.
Against the Steelers unstoppable defense, Brady completed only 25 of 40 passes for 243 yards.
Brady rues Bucs' subpar performances
Following the nail-biting loss, Brady admitted the Buccaneers haven't been playing up to their full potential since the start of the season.
"We didn’t earn the win," he said after the game. "It's a game of earning it. And it’s a game of playing well and performing well. And we’re just not doing a good job of that."
Brady added: "I don’t think we have done that for six weeks. I think we are all playing less than what we are capable of. We’ve all got to look at ourselves in the mirror and figure out why."
Heading into next week's action with one of his worst start's to a season ever, Brady will travel to Charlotte and suit up against the North Carolina Panthers.
The Buccaneers showdown against North Carolina is set for Sunday, October 23 at 1:00 PM EDT.
