What did Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians think of Tom Brady s debut on Sunday versus the New Orleans Saints?
He looked like Tom Brady in practice all the time, so it s kind of unusual to see that in a ballgame due to the fact that they didn t do things that we didn t prepare for, Arians said. Everything they did, we thought we were prepared for, Arians said. Some pass receivers need to do a much better task of winning individually when he decides to go their method. He put us in the right run checks a couple times. It was a knowing experience that method.
He thought it was an uncommon efficiency by his legendary quarterback.
If you re tossing an out route and you throw it low and inside that hasn t been the case up until that one, Arians said. And most likely a much better choice to go someplace else with the ball.
Brady, who was 23-of-36 for 239 backyards, tossed two touchdowns and two costly interceptions in the Bucs 34-23 loss. He was first obstructed by Marcus Williams in the second quarter, and after that obstructed once again in the third quarter by Janoris Jenkins, who returned it 36 yards for a goal to offer the Saints a 24-7 lead.

It doesn t matter just how much skill you have if you toss interceptions returned for touchdowns, so I ve got to correct that, he said.
No doubt, he said. It wasn t Cover 2, it was quarters protection and Mike must have been splitting, decreasing the middle and never stopping.

He likewise had words for Brady s sulky-demeanor after the loss:.
He s had it before he knows how to recuperate, Arians stated. He knew he didn t play effectively and it s not what he anticipates from himself, nor what we expect. I would expect him to have a little bit more grit [and] a little bit more decision this week.
I believe it s a fantastic learning experience. It s simply Round 1 of a 16-round fight and we ll discover from it.

Arians had critiques, as well, for Brady s overall efficiency on Sunday.
Brady was important of himself for throwing two interceptions, calling them bad throws to put it plainly.
