If Tom Brady needed any reassurance that leaving New England for Tampa Bay was the right decision, Week 6 provided enough evidence.
Brady’s Buccaneers obliterated the previously unbeaten Green Bay Packers 38-10 with a dominant defensive performance while only needing 166 passing yards from the 43-year-old quarterback. That is an ideal setting for Brady at this point of his career. He is surrounded by elite weapons at wide receiver, an emerging running back and one of the most improved offensive lines in football. Even Rob Gronkowski is getting into the action.
Brady is no longer required to carry an entire team, as the Bucs have one of the most complete rosters in the NFL led by a defense that is extremely sound at all three levels.
