NFL: Tom Brady receives the biggest loss of his career against...

The New Orleans Saints celebrated a runaway victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. At 38: 3 (31: 0) the Buccaneers around quarterback Tom Brady even threatened to remain without their own point. It was only in the last quarter that kicker Ryan Succop turned a field goal. According to US sports broadcaster ESPN and USA Today newspaper, it is the biggest loss in Brady’s NFL career.

It was the duel between the two quarterback superstars. With four touchdowns, Brees overtook Brady in the stats of the most touchdown passes in NFL history. Brees is now at 564, Brady is now at 560.

Brady hardly had time for his throws against the strong Saints defense. Again and again the offensive line of the Buccaneers collapsed and Brady had to take hits. He threw three interceptions. The debut of the controversial approach Antonio Brown did nothing to change that. The receiver came in at 31 yards with only three passes captured.

Game already decided at break

On the other hand, the Saints were variable. When Brees wasn’t playing, backup quarterback Taysom Hill delivered, who not only can throw, but is also used as a tightend, among other things. With three pass touchdowns by Brees and one run by Alvin Kamara, the game was already decided at the break.

It is the first time in Brady’s career that Brady lost twice to the same team in the regular season. The Buccaneers had already lost to the Saints on the first day of the match, and Brady had thrown two interceptions in New Orleans. With a record of 6: 3, the Buccaneers are in second place in the NFC South Division behind the Saints, who have a record of 6: 2.

On Sunday evening, the Pittsburgh Steelers had also won their eighth game of the season. It’s the best start to the season in franchise history, the Steelers are the only team in the league without a loss. At 24:19 (9:13) against the Dallas Cowboys, the team around quarterback veteran Ben Roethlisberger had to tremble until the last play.
