Tom Brady did not perform to his usual high standards in week one as he completed 18 of 27 passes for just 212 yards, with one touchdown and one interception. However, that was enough to get the win as the Buccaneers defense held the Cowboys to just one field goal in the 19-3 victory on Sunday night.

Things will not get any easier for Brady and the Bucs, as they will head to New Orleans to take on the Saints in week two. Since joining Tampa Bay in 2020, Brady is 0-4, with eight interceptions and has been sacked 13 times in the regular season against New Orleans.
