Bucs’ Tom Brady takes out frustration on tablet after INT seals shutout loss to Saints
Tom Brady couldn’t stand what he was seeing on the screen: the Saints’ defense was smothering him and the Buccaneers in their Week 15 “Sunday Night Football” game.
So Brady did a Brady thing and destroyed the Microsoftย Surface tablet in a fit of sideline rage.

Seriously, though, because Brady finished Tampa Bay’s 9-0 loss with 26-for-48 passing for 214 yards. The tablet smash happened after Chauncey Gardner-Johnson intercepted Brady in the fourth quarter to seal the game.

Brady did another Brady thing after that pick: he cursed out a Saints coach on the sideline.
But let’s go with one meme at a time. Here’s how the internet made jokes in “Tomย vs. Touch Screen”:
There were also a few swipes at Brady the “competitor,” of course.
Frustrated Brady yells at the refs, his teammates, and the opposing teamโs coachโฆand now heโs throwing his tablet. What a role model. ๐
Donโt try to tell me itโs because heโs a competitor. Heโs a jerk. pic.twitter.com/2nPSSZbQgL
