[Watch] "We are so much better than the way we are f**king playing" - Tom Brady snaps at OL in loss vs. Steelers
Tom Brady is in his 23rd season in the NFL and we have a side of him on the field that many fans haven't been privy to. In the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 20-18 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the 45-year-old quarterback wasn't too pleased with his offensive line play.
The seven-time Super Bowl-winner made sure he let them know about it. In a video that captured the moment, Brady said this:
"We are so much better than the way we are f**king playing"
The Buccaneers quarterback went 25 for 40 with 243 yards passing and a touchdown throw in this loss. However, it's not the first time we've seen the legendary quarterback go after his teammates during a game this season.
Video - Broadcast booth later said: "Tom is holding his offensive line accountable."

In Tampa Bay's Week 2 victory over their NFC South rivals, the New Orleans Saints, Brady was seen yelling at teammates as well as destroying a Microsoft tablet on the sidelines in disgust. The NFL later issued a memo to all teams following the quarterback's incident with the tablet.
Overall, this season for the three-time NFL MVP has been challenging both on and off the field.
Tom Brady and his year thus far
So far, the Buccaneers are at .500 with a record of 3-3 and in a tie atop the NFC South with the Atlanta Falcons. Ideally, this is not where Tom Brady expected to be after deciding to unretire this offseason, after having decided to call it a career earlier.
Off the field, he's dealing with divorce rumors and seems estranged from his wife of 13 years, supermodel Gisele Bündchen.
It was reported that Bündchen wasn't happy when Brady made the choice to return to the NFL, leading to a rift between the couple.
However, all is not lost for the Buccaneers and the five-time Super Bowl MVP this season as he looks for another Lombardi Trophy and his second with the team. Despite saying that he's used to dealing with the media and the rumors, a case could be made that his personal life is affecting his professional life.
