Tom Brady makes a big admission regarding his playing experience in Germany
Tom Brady has played in dozens of memorable victories and defeats over the years. However, playing in Germany for the first time ranks almost as high as his Super Bowls. At least, that is what he alluded to when describing the experience on the Let's Go Podcast.
"It was electric. We got there before the game. And there was a huge tailgate out front. It was electric. From the start, we ran out for pregame warmups and [the] stadium was basically full. I couldn't believe it. It felt like not quite a Super Bowl, but that type of electricity where everyone was just super excited to see the game. So we all felt it."
He continued, predicting that everyone who played in the game is going to remember it forever:
"Just being a part of the whole first opportunity to play an NFL game in Germany was incredibly unique. And I think everyone who played is going to remember that game for the rest of their lives. So I was really excited. We won, we played much better football than we played all year. We're going to have to keep it up because we got some tough games ahead."
Tom Brady's upcoming schedule
With Tom Brady solidly stuck in the continental United States for the rest of the season, the scale becomes much smaller but the stakes much higher. At 5-5 and leading the NFC South, the Buccaneers are in the driver's seat in the division race.
The team left Germany for their bye week, but will still keep the lead despite taking a week off.
If the next closest team, the Atlanta Falcons, win their next game, they will jump to 5-6, but will still be a game behind. They play the Chicago Bears, who have found an offense this year but have struggled to stop teams defensively. Meanwhile, the Buccaneers' next game will be against the Cleveland Browns.
What an atmosphere. Thank you Germany 🙏 https://t.co/hPZFZjxu3e
After that, Tom Brady will play the New Orleans Saints, San Francisco 49ers, Cincinnati Bengals, Arizona Cardinals, Carolina Panthers, and the Atlanta Falcons to wrap up the season.
