Buccaneers News: Tom Brady's sideline meltdown against Saints leaves NFL fans in splits: "Throw those Surface tablets, Tom. DO IT"

Tom Brady's sideline meltdown against Saints leaves NFL fans in splits: "Throw those Surface tablets, Tom. DO IT"

Modified Dec 06, 2022 19:40 GMT

Sideline outbursts seem to be a common occurrence for Tom Brady lately. The 45 year old quarterback was seen sitting on the bench last night with a Surface tablet in hand, yelling toward the field.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich was on one side of Brady and backup quarterback Blaine Gabbert was on the other. Neither seemed too surprised that Brady was upset and yelling at his team yet again.

Brady and the Buccaneers pulled off a 17-16 win over their NFC South rivals, the New Orleans Saints. However, they didn't take the lead until there was less than ten seconds remaining. For most of the game, the Bucs were unable to get in the redzone or get any rhythm on offense, hence Brady's frustrations.

NFL fans on Twitter, however, enjoyed the quarterback's latest sideline meltdown. Many asked the inevitable question of whether the Surface tablet was going to be thrown as in times past. The NFL has warned Brady and the rest of the league that if any equipment is broken, they will be fined. Whether that stopped him is a different matter.

Other fans were convinced that Tom Brady would be able to lead the team to a comeback once again. Regardless of their opinion, everyone seemed to enjoy his outburst:

Tom Brady says he gave Aaron Judge his 'best pitch'

MLB MVP outfielder Aaron Judge was in attendance on Monday night to watch the Tampa Bay Buccaneers take on the New Orleans Saints. The current free agent has met with MLB teams over the past few weeks, including the New York Yankees and San Francisco Giants. However, he is yet to announce a decision on where he will play next season.

Judge was wearing a Mike Evans jersey as a nod to the wide receiver. Evans wore Judge's jersey when he broke Roger Maris' home run record. Brady and Judge met briefly on the sidelines before the teams took to the field.

Many wondered what they could have been talking about and according to Tom Brady, he was giving Judge his best pitch. He took to Twitter on Tuesday morning and posted a photo of himself and Judge. He also thanked the MLB All-Star for coming to the game.

While Judge did play tight end in high school and received offers to play at the collegiate level, it's safe to say that he has found his calling in baseball. We will see if he does decide to shock the world and join Tom Brady in the coming weeks.
