Watch: Tom Brady gives up a pick six

Los Angeles Chargers defender Michael Davis steps in front of a Tom Brady throw and takes it the other way for six.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense seemed to be in sync early, with a scoring drive to start things off against the Los Angeles Chargers. After Justin Herbert matched the Buccaneers offense with a deep shot to Tyron Johnson, it was the veteran quarterback’s turn.

A Tom Brady passing attempt did lead to points, but for the boys in blue:

Brady tries to find Justin Watson on the speed out pattern, but Michael Davis steps in front of it and takes it the other way for a touchdown. This play is eerily reminiscent of Brady’s Pick Six back in Week 1, when Janoris Jenkins stepped in front of another speed out for six points going the other way.

At this point in his career, Brady has faced many questions about his arm strength. The deep route is the proverbial “NFL throw,” where arm strength does come into play. For the second time this season, Brady saw one of those “NFL throws” result in six points for the other squad.
