Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady also acknowledged that his remaining football isn’t much, in an interview with ABC
20 seasons long Tom Brady only knew one way – the “modo Patriot“- but it only took one extra season to realize that this was not the only road to success.
“When you’ve been in one place for twenty years, you think it’s the only way,” he said. Brady in the program “Good Morning America” from ABC in an interview that aired Wednesday. “And I think when you go to another place, you realize, ‘Wow, here’s a different way people do things.’
He later added, “I was the new man for the first time. And it was a very different experience.”
Those new experiences resulted in a familiar result, with Brady conquer another title from Super Bowl – his seventh overall – in his first season with the Tampa Bay BuccaneersSigned with Bucs as a free agent past the off-season, leaving behind the legacy he has built up with the New England Patriots
“I think that’s the great thing about football,” he said. Brady in the program. “It’s not really about what you did last year. It’s about what you’re going to do this year. So for me it was what I was aiming for with the Bucs Last season. I still feel the same. “
“It’s an important part of what I understood last year: things will be different. I’m trying to work within what’s happening right now, but I’m still trying to do my best. the season ended – so it was a great year. “
It was also the first season that he played for a different head coach than Bill Belichick from New England
[Bruce Arians] it’s a great motivator, ”he said Brady from the coach of the Bucs“He has a great feel for the team … a great heartbeat for what’s going on in a locker room, great intuition, great talent evaluation.”
And at the age of 43 Brady relied on that motivation to keep his competition fire alive on the way to his fifth appointment as Super Bowl MVP
“I was always motivated by people saying, ‘You can’t do it,’” he said. BradyYou know, you’re not good enough, you’re not fast enough, your arm isn’t good enough. “I’ve had a lot of work over time … and it’s easy to forget.”
That backlog is not over yet. Brady is bound by the Bucs until the 2022 season after agreeing to an extension of this outdoor season that saved the team $ 19 million from the 2021 salary cap. And with that money, the Bucs they held the band together and the 22 starters from offense and defense returned to defend the title.
“I don’t think testing it is the motivation for me,” he said. Brady to the morning show. ‘I still want to play. Got a little sickness in me that makes me want to throw that goddamn spiral, you know what I’m talking about?
‘Once you quit, you can’t do it anymore. And I have a lot of football. [todavía]I mean, it’s not much, and I know. But what I still have, I’m going to give everything I have. “
