The episode began with a focus on the Patriots’ loss to the Titans in the 2020 AFC wild card round of the playoffs. With Brady’s contract set to expire following the season, the loss to Tennessee was seen at the time as potentially his final game with the Patriots. According to Brady, he already knew that it was. “I’d kind of been through a persona...
“It became pretty obvious that he needed to make a change,” Brady’s father, Tom Brady Sr., said of his son’s final days with the Patriots. “It was wearing him down. It was beating him up.” Brady elaborated on why felt he had to leave. “Because we were very successful, winning became more routine than losing,” Brady said of playing in New England. “...
Brady spoke expansively in the episode about the influence his father had on him, and the support he received. “I don’t want to get too emotional at the start, but there’s a big commitment that your parents make,” said Brady. “My dad made every commitment to me.” “When I wanted to learn to play quarterback, he was the one who kept — he didn’t push ...
Brady became an unrestricted free agent for the first time in his career after two decades in the NFL. Very quickly, an odd reality became clear to the longtime Patriot. His assumption that most NFL teams would pursue him turned out to not be correct. “Unless you have one of the probably top few [quarterbacks],” Brady recalled, “I would be expectin...
After retiring from football following the Patriots’ win in Super Bowl LIII, Rob Gronkowski didn’t play in the 2019 season. Despite continuous speculation about a comeback, Gronkowski stayed away. But with Brady now in Tampa Bay, it only took a single meeting for the two former teammates to begin contemplating how they could reunite. As it turned o...
In discussing the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Brady Sr. offered more on his own experience. “I’m kind of lucky that I’m still here, to be honest with you” Brady Sr. bluntly admitted. “They didn’t have vaccines at that time. I had [COVID-19] for 18 days, was in the hospital. I was this close to having to go on a ventilator. Thank God tha...
One of the (retrospectively) humorous moments from Brady’s 2020 season came in a game against the Bears in October. Trailing late in the fourth quarter, Brady mistakenly thought he had one more down on the decisive drive, failing to realize that fourth down had come and gone. The Buccaneers lost the game, 20-19. And while Brady probably didn’t laug...
Brady and the Buccaneers headed into the team’s 2020 bye week with a 7-5 record, knowing that their “best football had to be ahead.” “In order to make the playoffs, we had to basically win every game after that bye week,” Gronkowski noted. In describing how the team managed to hit its stride at the perfect time, Brady appeared to emphasize an alter...
For Gronkowski, part of his motivation with the Buccaneers upon reaching Super Bowl LV was to show that he could win a championship away from his old team. “I just felt like Tom and I, we had a different connection,” Gronkowski explained. “We both wanted to prove that we could win outside of New England. We wanted to prove to everyone that we could...
“We want our kids to be happy,” Brady said in a reflective final few minutes of the episode. But as he looks at his own life, Brady noted that he doesn’t necessarily want for his children what he experienced himself. “I think maybe what I’d wish for my children is to find something they really love to do like I have. But I think I’ve taken it to an...
