Absolutely surgical. I still lived with a roommate at the time and I told him when that drive started, “you better hold on to your ass.” That drive was absolutely filthy. They didn’t show the best part, though…

It’s funny that people think Mahomes had it “so tough” last year because the fourth option on offense, a former 1st round pick, was dropping some passes.
"The most challenging thing is when I see something and I think 'Oh, that was horrible,' but I just can't say that on TV," Brady said. "Because there are parents and there are family members, and I don't want to always necessarily say it in that way. If I was doing it myself, and let's say a really bad interception, I would walk to the sidelines and I'd say 'You are the worst quarterback in the world. How could you possibly make that throw? That was terrible.'
"But, I just don't want to be so critical because, in some ways, I don't necessarily know exactly what the problem was on that play... I don't think I'm going to dial back to make something that was negative into a neutral or a positive. I think if something's not good, I'm going to point out why it's not good and how it could be better... The criticism of a player is different versus the criticism of a play is very different."
Brady is getting paid handsomely to be himself, and if he's not going to be authentic on the broadcast, it could be worse than if he had just shared his true thoughts, even if they hurt some feelings.
