The season opener was an evening to forget for the successful Tom Brady.
Against the New Orleans Saints, the star quarterback went down with his Tampa Bay Buccaneers at 23:34.
Brady’s record: two touchdowns, but also two interceptions. In addition, the 42-year-old only brought 23 of 36 litters to the man.
The six-time Super Bowl winner has to face the Carolina Panthers (NFL, Week 2: Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Carolina Panthers, Sun., from 7 p.m. in the livesores). increase now significantly, otherwise there is a risk of a 0-2 false start. The Bucs are therefore under a lot of pressure.
While Tampa’s Front Seven knew how to convince in the first game, the offense has to deliver. But wide receiver Chris Godwin will probably have to pass due to a concussion, but Mike Evans should be fit after thigh problems.
Brady and Gronk have to deliver
Also from tight end Rob Gronkowski (2 receptions, 11 yards) and running back Leonard Fournette (5 carries, 5 yards) must come significantly more.
The Panthers, on the other hand, are mainly offensively dangerous: Teddy Bridgewater had a decent quarterback rating of 98.8 in the 30:34 bankruptcy against the Raiders, running back Christian McCaffrey ran at 97 yards to two touchdowns and Roby Anderson came in six passes to 114 yards and a touchdown.
The only question is whether the Panthers’ defense, weakened by injuries, can hold up against Brady and Co. (Here for the 2020/21 NFL schedule).
Packers fans hope for the next Rodgers show
In the 43:34 victory of the Green Bay Packers against the Vikings, Aaron Rodgers triumphed.

The quarterback threw 32 full passes for 364 yards and four touchdowns – without interception – on 44 attempts, resulting in a passer rating of 127.5. Rodgers sometimes shone with unbelievable highlight throws.
The Detroit Lions defense will have a lot to do with the Davante Adams, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Allen Lazard offensive weapons.
