When the pressure was on in Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday, Tom Brady’s response was simply a shrug.While Travis Kells is under intense scrutiny for shoving coach Andy Reid during the Kansas City Chiefs’ win over the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas, the New England Patriots legend is downplaying the situation. “There’s always going to be some family stuff,” Brady said on Let’s Go! Podcast. “Of course I don’t like what I see. I have been a part of many things. You think your emotions are running high. You are definitely not centered and balanced.
You are not in a meditative state right now. “I think a lot of what comes out during the game will surprise people because of the determination to go after it and win.”We don’t remember Brady lashing out at coach Bill Belichick. But there have been some hot moments during New England’s 18-year dynasty, including six Super Bowl victories. I think of Brady’s attack on offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien in 2011. Reid and Kelce both laughed after this incident. Reid joked that Kelce “knocked me off balance,” and the tight end apologized to the coach.
However, similar disclosures have led to disciplinary action in the past. And Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown also said on social media that if he pushed the coach, he would be “kicked out of the league.” “As always, I think Coach Reed did a great job,” Brady said. “He just said, ‘I was a little off balance and I think that’s good because Travis is a real competitor and he’s showing his leadership qualities.’ Some coaches are very sensitive and say, “I’m embarrassed that you did that. .” Say, you’re a competitor, you’re an athlete.
You go out there and you have the same confidence that Travis has and you have All-Pro experience and you’ve won Super Bowls. I know several players who would die if they left the field at that moment. “
