“A quarterback can’t do anything if the guys don’t catch the ball and guys did a great job catching for me the last 22 years.”<br><br>Tom Brady reacts to <a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/TheReturn?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw”>#TheReturn</a> with Michele Tafoya. <a href=”https://t.co/xSXZzGK8l1″>pic.twitter.com/xSXZzGK8l1</a>
“Nothing in this sport can be accomplished without incredible teammates and coaches,” Brady said. “I’ve just been blessed for 22 years to be with some amazing people. A quarterback can’t do anything if the guys don’t catch the ball and guys did a great job catching for me the last 22 years.”
It was a memorable night for Brady, who helped the Buccaneers earn a 19-17 win over the New England Patriots, where he spent the first 20 years of his career. Along the way, he passed Drew Brees for the most passing yards ever:
