Brett Favre Shares A Text Message From Tom Brady After Beating The Saints
January 20th, 2021
It’s a safe bet that Tom Brady wouldn’t stiff Brett Favre on a postgame handshake or a bro-hug like he did to other QBs this season.
Favre and Brady are buddies, as well as living quarterback legends.
Speaking on SiriusXM NFL Radio this week, Favre talked about texting with Jenn Sterger Brady after the Bucs walloped the Saints on Sunday to advance to play Favre’s beloved Packers in the NFC title game.
“I sent Tom a congratulations text this week,” Favre said. “‘And he said, ‘Hey, thanks Brett. It’s kind of weird to think that I’m playing the championship game in Green Bay this week. Who would have ever thunk it?’
And I totally agree. It’s kind of weird.”
Joe realizes that’s just two dudes shooting a friendly text, but it is intriguing to consider that Brady is shaking his head a bit in disbelief about where he is today.
Damn, if Brady thinks “it’s kind of weird,” then maybe he can understand how mind-blowing it is for long-time Bucs fans.
It’s a special Hall of Fame talk edition of TAMPA TWO with Ira Kaufman and Derrick Brooks. Presented by Joe and The Identity Tampa Bay.

i think Favre is the one saying it is weird, not Brady.
it’s Weird to them because it’s in an NFC stadium.

I think the Bucs will pull this off. Bucs defense is a different animal when they mostly play press man and Devon White is out there. I expect Brady to have a big game.

Very cool, but I believe he’s referring to it as weird since Greem Bay is in the NFC, and until this year he would have never played a conference championship there. Go Bucs!

“Jenn Sterger”…. haha, we all see what you did there, joe….

“Damn, if Brady thinks “it’s kind of weird,” then maybe he can understand how mind-blowing it is for long-time Bucs fans.”
AGREED 1000%

I think he must be referring to not being in NE. BF understands changing teams.
Don’t think he meant “weird” in that he didn’t think this team had the ability.

“Damn, if Brady thinks “it’s kind of weird,” then maybe he can understand how mind-blowing it is for long-time Bucs fans.”
Fully agree as well. Mind blowing. I don’t want these dream to end. One more win… and then one more after that…

I bet Favre was texting Giselle too

GO BUCS!!!!

They may have to create a new division so he can get to the division final in that one as well
He has been in the division finals 14 of 19 years (cause 1 rookie year and didnt play 1 year after injured first game of year when he got rolled and changed rules of nfl)
And to think some people thought this was a bad decision to let one guy go (who did not win half his games )and bring in a winner. I get the age issue for sure. What he is doing at 43 does not seem possible. But anyone that watches football know its not like he was just throwing shorter passes last year (aka brees after all his injuries). He can still make a 50 yard dime look pretty effortless. Led league this year in over 20 yard throws and yards this year for over 20 yard throws
Suck it trolls! Aka the messiah cult

Tom Brady has delivered on what he came here to do…..we are a contender in the playoffs. Whether we win or lose, it has been a great season to be a Buc fan.
Fingers crossed for another win.
January 20th, 2021 at 12:30 pm
I’m going with what Bobby said.
It’s been a fun ride so far.
One more win and it would be insane.

😂😂😂😂

I took it more of it being weird he’s playing the twilight of his career as a Buc not a Pat.
I sure never envisioned him and this as it’s happening now.
January 20th, 2021 at 12:34 pm
Maybe it’s weird because he’s in the NFC Championship game not the AFC Championship game. This is his first time in the NFC and would have never had a playoff game in the NFC in the past.

Bucholic
Got it right
January 20th, 2021 at 12:45 pm
I’ll take weird……
January 20th, 2021 at 12:46 pm
We need a Vita update!!!
January 20th, 2021 at 1:18 pm
It’s only weird for TB12 because it’s the NFC and not the AFC Championship…..
January 20th, 2021 at 1:27 pm
Joe this game can’t come quick enough, you’re obviously running out of topics to write about since you have now stooped to trying to decipher what Brady meant when he used the term weird.
January 20th, 2021 at 4:37 pm
I will tell you what is ‘kind of weird’. We beat the Packers, and we are playing at home, in the Super Bowl!
January 20th, 2021 at 7:11 pm
Go Packers!!! Serve Tom Brady a well deserved Loss!!

That’s exactly how I understand it 👍

Enjoy it while you can 2 to 3 years from now the bucs will be irrelevant once again
January 20th, 2021 at 10:03 pm
Even if we don’t go any farther it’s been a nice ride considering the last xx years. Tom is the goat for sue. I hated him before he came to the bucs. Only because Im a true southerner and dislike most Yankee teams
I’m converted, go Bucs.

Thomas
You are a reee-tard.
January 21st, 2021 at 9:52 am
It ain’t weird for me up in New England. We know what Tom is and I’m not surprised that he is where he is today with the Bucs. NFC/AFC…… UFC!? I don’t think it matters to Tom. Winning is winning and that’s all he does! He hates losing more than he loves winning.

Its TB12 destiny to play a home game sb…we need to keep up the intensity on defense and pressure rogers and stay in his face!!!! Hit them so hard they dont want to catch the ball take away adams and watch the deep ball occasionally thrown…dont give them an inch….dont let them breathe!!!! Keep the man coverage…keep our run game going its going to be crucial and keep rogers off the field….the balanced attack is a must!!!!! Pray for AB and his knee hooefully he will play!!!! We need some creativity on offensive play calling i love that rams play when they went for 2 that was awesome we got this!!!!!! TAMPA BAY ALL THE WAY!!!!!

Bobby no if we don’t win the superbowl then it is a bust so far !! Why do yall have such a losing mentality ?? I have more confidence in the team than most of yall on this site . That’s why you can’t make this about 1 guy . Brady was not the reason why we won last week . We ran the ball 33 times last week how come when we win yall give all the credit to Brady regardless how he plays . But when we lose yall focus on the hold team but him .
