Rich Eisen lauds Tom Brady after QB engineered record-setting game-winning drive vs. Rams

Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were able to stop their three-game skid on Sunday with a 16-13 win over the Los Angeles Rams. Brady was able to pull off a game-winning drive to stop the defending Super Bowl champs.

Rich Eisen said on The Rich Eisen Show on Monday that the Rams had the game locked up. However, the failures of the offense allowed Brady and the Bucs to get back on the field. He said the Rams giving Brady the ball back and stopping him is similar to the plot of a horror film - knowing that something bad could happen, but still doing it anyway.

Tom Brady's had a ton of fourth-quarter comebacks in his NFL career, but today with Bucs vs. Rams is the first time in his 23-year career he's gotten the ball with less than a minute left while trailing, and has thrown a touchdown pass to win in regulation.

Eisen said that Brady's ability to lead the Bucs on a game-winning drive resembled when the quarterback still played for the New England Patriots. His determination and ability to drive the ball down the field is something he has lacked so far this season.

"It's like the horror movie. Like, you don't do that. Don't go there. Don't do that. Don't you know the killer's back there, honestly? And it worked out for the Rams previously. And this time around, they're like, 'Go for it. Try it again'… And in 2022, the Tom Brady from the Patriots showed up."

Eisen called out the Rams' offense for not being able to keep the drive going. Brady ultimately threw a touchdown pass to rookie tight end Cade Otton for the win.

Who is Bucs rookie TE Cade Otton? Tom Brady's latest reliable target

The heroic touchdown catch was Cade Otton's first career touchdown reception, a moment he will surely never forget as Raymond James Stadium burst with joy.

TOM BRADY AND THE BUCS WIN 😱

The Buccaneers drafted Otton in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of the University of Washington. The tight end's role with the offense has continued to grow each week as the tight end position looks much different this season. Rob Gronkowski retired, OJ Howard left in free agency, and Cam Brate is currently out with a neck injury.

Otton had five catches on six targets for 68 yards on Sunday, along with the touchdown. It appears that Tom Brady has found his newest reliable target on offense.
