Tom Brady talked about the recipe for Patriots playoff success in WEEI interview

Tom Brady had better things to say about the Patriots’ passing game a week after criticizing his own role in the team’s offense.

“We just had better execution,” Brady noted in his weekly interview on WEEI’s “Mut & Callahan.” “Yesterday I thought they were really intent on stopping us trying to run the ball, and we did a little better job in the passing game.”

Now looking ahead to the playoffs, Brady sees the formula that makes the Patriots a potentially tough opponent, especially at Gillette Stadium.

“For the defense to play as well as they did, and they’re playing so great, especially at home, it’s just a huge reality check for where we’re at,” said Brady.
