Tom Brady admitted he is proud of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for reaching the postseason in 2022 after a testing year for the quarterback both on and off the field.
On Sunday, the Buccaneers secured their second successive NFC South division title as they came from behind to defeat the Carolina Panthers 30-24 at Raymond James Stadium. Brady threw for 432 yards and three touchdowns - all deep balls to star receiver Mike Evans - without producing a turnover while he also pulled off a quarterback sneak to score and book his ticket to the playoffs.
In a crucial contest, Evans put up his best performance of the season so far to the tune of 10 catches for 207 yards along with three touchdowns. The 29-year-old scored on receptions of 63, 57 and 30 yards to become the first player in NFL history to begin a career with nine consecutive seasons with 1,000-plus yards receiving.
