Did Tom Brady actually taunt Saints coach with NSFW insult during SNF?
For the first time in 255 starts, former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was shut out, and it came on the big stage. The Sunday Night Football matchup between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New Orleans Saints featured nine total points, zero of which came from Brady and Co. It was the first time ever Brady failed to score a point at home, and it was just the third time ever he captained an offense to a goose egg.
It was the second time he’s lost to the Saints this year. Even worse, Brady’s now lost to Trevor Siemian and Taysom Hill as the opposing starting quarterbacks. Wouldn’t that have you fuming?
Brady also fumbled in the red zone and threw a pick toward the end of regulation when the Bucs were attempting to put pressure on the Saints with a late scoring drive. After that interception, it appears as if Brady might need to take a little break from social media.
Or else he’s going to have to explain whatever this was. Brady made his way to the Saints’ side of the field following Chauncey Gardner-Johnson’s INT and apparently had something to say that you’d only expect from him after some excessive helpings of avocado tequila.
Did Tom Brady curse out a New Orleans Saints coach on Sunday Night Football?
We don’t exactly know what Brady said, but he definitely wasn’t congratulating anybody. A lot of the speculation and social media lip readers think TB12 dropped an F-bomb in there.
First, Brady flipped out on the refs for not getting enough calls, then he went over to exchange words with Saints interim head coach Dennis Allen, who was taking over for Sean Payton amid his COVID diagnosis. The defensive coordinator filled in admirably, holding the greatest quarterback of all time to one of his worst performances ever.
The best part may have been seeing TB12 losing his cool progressively throughout the evening. The Saints improved to 7-7 and are right in the thick of the NFC playoff picture.
This loss also put the Bucs in a tough position for home field advantage throughout the postseason. The Packers improved to 11-3 with their win over the Ravens and the Bucs dropped to 10-4. And if the two teams finish with the same record at the end of the year, Green Bay will win the tiebreaker since Brady and the Bucs have a worse conference record, losing four games to NFC opponents compared to the Packers’ two. But at the moment the Cowboys are actually ahead of the Bucs in the playoff standings.
That’s worth smashing a tablet over, isn’t it?

It was a rough Saturday for Patriots fans, and if you’re still tailing Brady and rooting for the seven-time champ, it was a horrific weekend.
At the very least, though, his outbursts were wildly entertaining. Can TB12’s social media team get a montage of all those highlights, please?
