Tom Brady says there’s lots of bad NFL football

Tom Brady is true.

The NFL is a bunch of bad football up to now this season.

Thursday Night’s stinker between the Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos was Exhibit A.

The Colts’ 12-9 extra time victory was so rancid that even the most important NFL fan needed to be looking out cable for a Golden Girls marathon on the Hallmark Channel. Neither crew may rating a landing.

But these things has really been commonplace over the primary 4 weeks of the season.

Games have been stuffed with dumb errors, inept offenses, bad teaching choices, and terribly blown leads in video games that ought to have been over.

“There’s a lot of bad football from what I watch,” Brady informed the media Thursday earlier than this recreation was performed. “I watch a lot of bad football. Poor quality of football. That’s what I see.”

Brady ought to know bad football. His Tampa Bay Buccaneers are off to a rocky 2-2 season and have struggled most of it, attempting to get into the top zone from the crimson zone.

Brady, 45, and in his twenty third season, mentioned it’s apparent why his crew isn’t taking part in properly.

“We look at the film and understand why,” he mentioned. “You turn the ball over. You get behind. You don’t play well on third down. You don’t score points in the red area. It’s all the same stuff. Stuff you’ve gone to work on.”

But loads of the stuff Brady is ranting about is occurring league-wide.

Blame the NFL for these debacles.

There are a couple of elements that should be a cause why.

A) Teams don’t apply as a lot as they used to; one thing that was agreed upon over the last CBA.

B) Some coaches don’t have their star quarterbacks or star gamers participate in any preseason video games.

C) The grasping house owners acquired rid of one preseason to receives a commission on an additional regular-season recreation.

D) There are a couple of coaches who’re positively over their heads and have botched video games that must be simple to maneuver. The Colts-Broncos primetime on Amazon was ridiculously ugly on offense — virtually unwatchable.

At one level within the first half, there have been 5 punts in a row — 4 of them had been on three-and-out drives. The rating on the half was 6-3, Denver.

Who was pitching?

It positively felt like a baseball recreation, not the football the place groups throw on virtually each down, and coaches go for it on a regular basis like they’re taking part in Madden.

At the half, the Colts had 144 complete yards. The house crew, Broncos, had a paltry 103. Denver was 2-for-7 on third down, whereas the Colt had been 3-for-8.

It was a pathetic get together, for certain.

Sure, a league would like to have parity — the place all of the groups have an sincere shot to win and it’s not simply the haves and have-nots.

But you need high quality football within the course of. This mess doesn’t make a fan be ok with their crew and provides them hope that they are going to have the ability to get by way of the postseason taking part in poor high quality football.

This isn’t simply bad groups taking part in badly. Some excellent groups have performed poorly as properly. The Cincinnati Bengals, who went to the Super Bowl final season, are off to a horrible begin. In the opener, QB Joe Burrow had extra turnovers than a bakery — 4 interceptions and a fumble.

The Baltimore Ravens have performed horrible football and blown large second-half, double-digits results in Miami and Buffalo. Easily, the Ravens must be 4-0.

Denver’s first-year head coach is so bad that he already has a nickname: Nathaniel “Can’t” Hackett.

And his quarterback Russell Wilson hasn’t helped in any respect. He was purported to be the savior. Everybody thought all Denver wanted was a star QB to go together with its stud protection. The recipe was purported to get them to the Super Bowl.

But Wilson has been a dud up to now. Somehow, he had no TDs on Thursday night time. “It’s not just on him,” Hackett mentioned about Wilson after the sport. “It’s on all of us.”

And the bad-play stink is seemingly everywhere in the NFL.

As if this recreation wasn’t bad sufficient, wait till subsequent Thursday night time when the marquee matchup in primetime would be the lowly Washington Commanders on the woeful Chicago Bears. Bet the beneath. NOW!

Just horrible.
