"I’ve pretty much moved past it," he said. With the top seed in the AFC on the line against a Steelers team who the Pats have dominated of late, Brady was already looking forward with a fresher vision by the time of his Tuesday morning interview with WEEI's "Kirk & Callahan." Later as the locker room cleared out and players’ name plates were pulled off and packed up, no one dared look Belichick in the eye as he gathered his own bags.Īs he prepared for what Brady later described as a “quiet flight home,” it was clearly to everyone present that we’re definitely "on to Pittsburgh." “Bottom line was we didn’t have a good night offensively in really any area and we were probably fortunate to have the points that we had with a couple of big plays and gained a lot of yards in a few plays,” he said. Any time you don’t have Gronk, it’s tough.”Īs you’d expect, Bill Belichick was stoic in his reaction to the loss – making grunt-like responses to media questions. Gronk’s absence was certainly felt by his other teammates, with wide receiver Danny Amendola saying before the game: “He’s an extremely good football player. We have to go to Pittsburgh and try to be a good team,” Brady concluded, before politely excusing himself. “Tonight, we were behind and turned it over, and played on their terms all night … it wasn’t a good night so we need to work harder on all of those things.

Looking drained and exhausted during the presser that went on well past midnight on the east coast, Brady lacked his usual spark as he spoke to equally dejected Patriots beat reporters. We try to spread the ball around quite a bit but we just didn’t get enough good plays." But we’ve got a lot of other good players. When asked if the loss was “just a coincidence” on the one game he didn’t have Gronk to throw to, Brady diplomatically replied: “He’s a great player so any time he is out there, it helps us. The 27-20 final score doesn’t reflect just how out of sync the Pats looked without Rob Gronkowski – or how disturbing the first down stats were.īrady, who is now 7-9 in Miami after finishing 24-of-43 for 233 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions, was the first to admit: “I’ve got to throw the ball better, that’s where it starts.” We’ve had a lot of good nights this year, and this was a bad night,” Brady said in the post game press conference. “It was a bad night, we didn’t make enough plays. There was nothing cheery about New England’s trip to the Sunshine State – and Tom Brady took the brunt of it when he spoke to reporters at Hard Rock Stadium following the loss.
