A bristly Tom Brady repeatedly tried to end press conference early after loss

“Make it quick.”

Tom Brady made it instantly clear he would not be spending much time with the media after the Tampa Bay Buccaneer’s 29-19 loss to the Washington Football Team.

“Make it quick,” Brady said postgame on Sunday.

He fielded a few questions with short answers and tried to end the press conference early, successfully leaving the meeting with the media after less than two minutes. He finished the game with 220 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. What did he see on those turnovers?

“We started with the ball. They came away with it,” he said.

He then tried walking off the podium before a reporter asked him to stay.

“What else?” Brady asked.

It was not a friendly interaction. Here’s a look.

He did not want to be there.

Tom Brady was extremely grumpy during his super-quick press conference after Sunday’s loss

Not happy!

If you threw two interceptions in a game and then eventually watched your defense give up a near-11-minute touchdown drive in the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach, you might be as grumpy as Tom Brady.

Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers fell to the Washington Football Team on the road 29-19, and after the contest, Brady was NOT happy.

You can see just how unhappy he was while speaking to reporters after the game, in an under-two-minutes availability that started with the legendary QB telling the gathered media, “Make it quick.”

You think he’s mad? See for yourself:

Yikes.

The Washington Football Team defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 29-19, on Sunday to improve to 3-6 on the season and snap a four-game losing streak.

It was an impressive performance from Washington in every phase of the game. The defense played its most complete game of the season, despite defensive end Montez Sweat missing due to injury and fellow defensive end Chase Young departing in the first half with what appears to be a severe knee injury.

The offense, led by quarterback Taylor Heinicke, running back Antonio Gibson and wide receiver Terry McLaurin, iced the win with a decisive touchdown to end the game.

The Washington Football Team played their best game of the season in Week 10, resulting in a 29-19 upset victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Things started well for Washington as the defense forced a three-and-out on the game’s opening possession.

Washington’s offense took the field, and while it couldn’t put the ball in the end zone, new kicker Joey Slye proved his value by drilling a 46-yard field goal to give the WFT an early 3-0 lead.

The defense went back to work on the Buccaneers’ second possession, as cornerback William Jackson III intercepted a deflected Tom Brady pass, giving Washington terrific field position. The offense stalled again, leading to another Slye field goal.

Washington’s kept the pressure on Tampa Bay, as safety Bobby McCain picked off Brady. Several plays later, quarterback Taylor Heinicke found wide receiver DeAndre Carter for a 20-yard touchdown to give Washington a 13-0 lead.

Unfortunately for Washington, defensive end Chase Young went down with a knee injury on Tampa Bay’s next possession. According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the early diagnosis is a torn ACL.

The Bucs would end the half with two field goals, cutting Washington’s lead to 16-6.

The second half began ugly for Washington’s offense, leaving fans to wonder, “here we go again.” But this game was different.

Brady led the Bucs on two touchdown drives, cutting the lead to three points on two occasions, but Washington’s offense, led by Heinicke, running back Antonio Gibson and wide receiver Terry McLaurin continued to answer.

Washington put together its best drive of the season in the fourth quarter and faced a fourth-and-goal from the one-yard line with under one minute remaining. Head coach Ron Rivera could’ve chosen to kick a field goal and make it a 26-19 Washington lead. After all, the Buccaneers had no timeouts remaining.

That’s not what Riverboat Ron chose to do. Instead, he went for the win. And one play later, Gibson went over the left side and into the end zone, putting Washington ahead, 29-19, effectively ending the team’s four-game losing streak.

Heinicke completed 26 of 32 passes for 256 yards and a touchdown. Gibson played his best game of the season, rushing for 64 yards and two touchdowns. He also made two crucial catches in the passing game, including one on the final drive.

McLaurin caught six passes for 59 yards, while Carter had three receptions for 56 yards.

Washington, now 3-6,  travels to Carolina in Week 11.

WATCH: Taylor Heinicke finds DeAndre Carter for the touchdown

Taylor Heinicke finds DeAndre Carter to give Washington a 13-0 lead in the first half.

The Washington Football Team has struggled to convert good drives into points in recent weeks. In a Week 7 loss at Green Bay, Washington’s offense struggled each time it was inside the Packers’ 30-yard line.

Early in the first half of Washington’s Week 10 game against the Buccaneers, it looked like more of the same from the offense. Washington went down the field into Tampa Bay territory and settled for field goals on two possessions.

Up 6-0 and facing a third-and-6, quarterback Taylor Heinicke decided he wasn’t settling for another field goal. Heinicke dropped back and found wide receiver DeAndre Carter for a 20-yard touchdown to give Washington a 13-0 lead in the second quarter.

It was a tremendous throw by Heinicke, as Carter continues to show why he’s Washington’s second-best receiver in 2021.

Washington leads the Buccaneers 16-6 at halftime.

The Washington Football Team leads the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 16-6, at halftime in Week 10 of NFL action.

Washington got off to a great start by forcing Tom Brady and the Buccaneers on a three-and-out on the game’s first possession. Washington’s offense moved down the field and settled for a 46-yard field goal from new kicker Joey Slye.

Washington cornerback William Jackson III picks off Brady on a deflected pass on the next possession. Unfortunately for Washington, it would have to settle for three points again.

Washington’s defense would make another play, as safety Bobby McCain picks off Brady again. This time, quarterback Taylor Heinicke found wide receiver DeAndre Carter for a 20-yard touchdown to give Washington a 13-0 lead.

The Buccaneers finally appeared to have something going when Washington defensive end Chase Young went down with a knee injury in the second quarter. He was ruled out for the game. Washington’s defense held the Bucs to a field goal.

Just before halftime, the Buccaneers faced a 4th-and-7, and Brady threw a short pass to wide receiver Mike Evans that should’ve ended the half. However, Jackson tackled Evans by his face mask, and Tampa Bay got one free untimed down. That led to kicker Ryan Succop kicking a field goal to make it 16-6.

That’s why Washington is a bad team. Jackson gave a very good team three points.

Heinicke has completed 13 of 16 passes for 129 yards and a touchdown in the first half. He had two drops but also had one pass deflect off a Tampa Bay defensive back’s hands into the waiting arms of Carter.

Washington will start the second half with the football.

WATCH: William Jackson III picks off Tom Brady

Washington’s defense came to play — at least early. A long way to go.

If the Washington Football Team is going to pull off the upset and take down the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 10, they will need to make life difficult for Tom Brady.

On the game’s opening drive, Washington’s defense forced a three-and-out. Washington’s offense turned that into three points.

Brady and the Bucs would go back on offense when safety Kam Curl hit Tampa Bay wide receiver Jaelon Darden, and the Brady pass deflected into the hands of Washington cornerback William Jackson III for the interception.

Unfortunately for Washington, it couldn’t complete the drive with a touchdown, which has been the case in recent weeks. Still, Washington jumped out to an early 6-0 lead over the defending Super Bowl champions.
