He's been consistently good and sometimes great, but he never became the consistently GREAT Linebacker everyone knew. Career top 5er, hall of good-but-not-great.
TB will never say it but winning with the Bucs must rank amongst his most satisfying achievements. The team won the hard way (they struggled badly until after the bye week) and he won without Belichek, when all were saying he was a ‘system QB’; ‘washed out’ etc.
Give Lavonte his due, he is a huge part of that SB win. He was on Kelce like a shirt for most of the game and largely shut him down as an outlet for Mahommes.
I'll never forget Tompa Bay Buccaneers Superbowl win at Home! It was A All time beat down BLOWOUT. What better way to put a cherry on top then first ever in year one to win it all in your OWN STADIUM. Tampa deserved that and their fans and I'm all for it. All the long time Bucs like David,Evans,and others GO BUCS
There is always going to be the debate on who the goat quarterback is. But one thing will remain in certainty. Tom Brady is the greatest leader of football that ever lived.
Now Rich just said it..that super bowl nobody picked the bucs except Irvin..so for all you people that say the bucs were stacked and a' super team' they only became a super team that off season after they won.they were 7-5 and never looked back
2 things need to be said for non ball knowers. 1. Lavonte David is one of the best Bucs ever, and one of the best linebackers I’ve seen play. He’s the dream draft pick for any team. At pick 58, 2012, looking back, is an absolute steal. Consistent, focused, locker room guy, strong, fast, smart, great instincts, decisive. And the longevity he’s had is rare. The type of player you said “man he deserves a ring”. And he got one and was instrumental for the Bucs that whole year.🙌🏽 2. Say this out loud. “Tom Brady left the patriots, signed to the Bucs, with Gronk, at 43, and the first year there won the Super Bowl, which was in Tampa, and he became the first player ever to win a home Super Bowl, oh and he threw 43 TDs that year.” Imagine someone told you that in 2012.
My grandfather, great grandfather, great great grandfather, uncle, cousin and cousin's son are all named Thomas Brady! In our family the name originates from Galway, Ireland. Signed..Rosemary Brady Hayes
Leave NE after 20 years, and come into a NEW org DURING the COVID-19 pandemic AND GLOBAL LOCKDOWN???! Get them all to SB despite many losses, and wait all that time to talk in the locker room??? And WIN, no, obliterate, everyone's sure thing team??? There's only one word for that kind of excellence: GOAT.
Mahomes is an amazing player. That game, his offensive line, let him down badly. I remember that scramble when he was horizontal to the turf, sidearmed it and it his the WR in the grill on the goaline. But to match or beat Tom, he still has a long way to go. Also his style of play does not promote a long career.
They only won because KC o-line was decimated. That said, I’m glad the Bucs won because winning on you home field had never happened before. And I love TB12 & Mike Evans
I think of Baker Mayfield as our Eli Manning . The talent is there and he has done well and it is within his abilities to give us a Super Bowl win . However I have heard them state that there is good Eli and then there is bad Eli . Ditto that with Baker but that Offensive line can at times be very offensive too .
Jordan's been done from the NBA for Decades and still gets brought up everyday. It's been 4 years since they won the superbowl...maybe YOU should let go.
Bucs had a world class defense that year. Even if Jamis was the QB they would’ve won the superbowl. Brady actually cost them some games when he forgot what down it was. I think Jamis would’ve went 15-1 and won the Super Bowl. Brady is way overrated
A person can't be the GOAT QB when they have lost Twice to the exact same person in the Superbowl. Also, until Bill gets to Coach another STACKED Team, that Tampa Team was STACKED, lets not behave as if Bill wasn't a Coaching Genius.
10 seasons without Brady had a losing record. A whole decade of coaching and a less than mediocre record. With Brady they had a average ranked defense. Look at the stats. Not saying he is the worst but I'm sorry he is not the best either.
let's not pretend that in 11 season without brady bill belichick made the playoffs only once , i repeat 11 seasons. Care to go through the numbers nas year with me? I'm like the other guy i'm waiting
@@AlwaysHalloween000 Guess what happens when you win for a Long Time, you DRAFT real low every year. I also could care less what Bill did before Brady unless you can TELL me exactly was the quality of those early year teams before he went to New England. Folks also don't want to talk about the first year Brady was out due to injury, New England went 11-5. But that was a odd year where that didn't get one into the playoffs. The First Yr Brady left for Good, they went to the playoffs with Horrible QB, Matt Jones. What's also not talked about although when Brady was there, it was talked about a Ton, How Blanking Brady didn't want a Good QB sitting behind him, clearly he didn't want Bill to have his Ready Replacement. So sure any Team goes up in Flames without a decent QB. It's one thing to go to a TEAM as a QB, ready made to win as oppose to a Coach building an entire Team from the Ground Up. I am still waiting for the Brady FANDOM crew to figure that part out.
One of the most underrated players in the league in the last 15 years
Tom Brady?
Nobody is underrated
Playing with Tom Brady as your QB had to be priceless and quite the experience.
Lavonte for whatever reason never was a major household name, but he has consistently been a top tier LB for many years.
Cause he plays for the Bucs. It’s not a super team, only time was Tom’s second year with Bucs
He's been consistently good and sometimes great, but he never became the consistently GREAT Linebacker everyone knew. Career top 5er, hall of good-but-not-great.
@@97CAB564numbers say otherwise but ok…
Because he is humble and quiet. He doesn’t act up.
TB will never say it but winning with the Bucs must rank amongst his most satisfying achievements. The team won the hard way (they struggled badly until after the bye week) and he won without Belichek, when all were saying he was a ‘system QB’; ‘washed out’ etc.
Absolutely…. It put all haters on hold and validated he was the real goat
And that playoff run all on the road
Give Lavonte his due, he is a huge part of that SB win. He was on Kelce like a shirt for most of the game and largely shut him down as an outlet for Mahommes.
David is a legend for us Bucs fans. Was there for the good times, but went through many rough years first. Hall of Fame bound
I'll never forget Tompa Bay Buccaneers Superbowl win at Home! It was A All time beat down BLOWOUT. What better way to put a cherry on top then first ever in year one to win it all in your OWN STADIUM. Tampa deserved that and their fans and I'm all for it.

There's been 3 SB games after this one and this is still on everyone's mind that says everything about brady and his legacy.
Facts hopefully he comes back another season
Awesome interview!
My favorite player. Nothing but respect for Lavonte. Best since 55.
Agree 100%
That Bucs team was fun to watch, it was magic and one of my favorite runs in the last 25 years.
There is always going to be the debate on who the goat quarterback is. But one thing will remain in certainty. Tom Brady is the greatest leader of football that ever lived.
Not really a debate
@@jhoodkid haters might have something to say about that...
Now Rich just said it..that super bowl nobody picked the bucs except Irvin..so for all you people that say the bucs were stacked and a' super team' they only became a super team that off season after they won.they were 7-5 and never looked back
Rich Eisen for president.
Every team is just ONE special player away from a championship. Damn the impact of Brady, that is why he is the GOAT.

Krewe Icon! Go BUCS!🏴☠️
Future HoFer Lavonte David
I like nice guys. Clearly they don't all finish last.
This dude is legend
🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Hall Of Fame.
That's some great sports stories. Thanks, Lavante David, for sharing. These stories further add the the Tom Brady legacy.
GBR!
Brady has helped some other Huskers get a ring too😂 Suh and Burkhead and I think a couple more too

Touchdown Tommy !!!
Brady would have gone to the Niners but they said nope we have Jimmy we are good. 😂😂😂 if Brady had gone to the Niners they would have two super bowls.
The Babe Ruth of football ….. they’ll be talking about Brady 100 yrs from now
he looks so much like kanye lol
Cornhusker...
Only TB12 would have to balls to say "we won't lose another game" and then make it happen.
They only won because KC o-line was decimated. That said, I’m glad the Bucs won because winning on you home field had never happened before. And I love TB12 & Mike Evans
The KC o-line didn’t give up 31.
No, they were just the better team!
Go chiefs
The GOAT owned Kermit and the Chefs like always LMAO!!!!
Going from Brady to Baker is a huge downgrade. It's like living in a mansion then becoming homeless and living on the streets.
I think of Baker Mayfield as our Eli Manning . The talent is there and he has done well and it is within his abilities to give us a Super Bowl win . However I have heard them state that there is good Eli and then there is bad Eli . Ditto that with Baker but that Offensive line can at times be very offensive too .
Brady is gone. Let him be PLEASE LOL

Nope Coach Arians was right in his assessment of Winston . He is fine if you want to win 7 games .
@ Winston is much better than Brady
COVID SB … sorry in the same category as the Redskins “scab year” essentially vacated
🏆
Wut? Stop with this. Basically everyone played. Only difference was limited fans for most of the season. Don't be a hater.
?
this isnt the nba, quit the hate

Brady beat mahomes twice in the post-season. I guess that doesn't help your argument 😂
Greatest buc to ever live
