There are so many questions the New England Patriots have to answer coming out of Sunday night’s 29-22 loss to the Houston Texans.
We’ll find out the answers later this year, but this is about one query that NFL fans had about Tom Brady and a moment captured by NBC’s cameras on the Pats’ sideline.
What was the quarterback saying during a passionate sideline speech that appeared to include an expletive or two?
People reached out to Jomboy Media, known for the breakdowns of alleged Houston Astros sign-stealing that went viral last month, hoping he had answers. And here’s what Jimmy O’Brien came up with by attempting to lip-read it (WARNING: NSFW language ahead):

Here’s another video that tries to get behind the scenes of what Brady might be thinking — former NFL QB Dan Orlovsky theorizes that Brady doesn’t trust receivers other than Julian Edelman and shows the quarterback on the sideline talking to offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels about some miscommunication with Phillip Dorsett:
Been saying this for weeks now for @Patriots offense. Outside of the physical-12 has trust in 1 guy. Edelman. That’s it…and it’s warranted. Watch 👇🏼 below. @MikeGiardi @patspulpit #SNFonNBC #Patriots @RochieWBZ @BenVolin pic.twitter.com/Vf8mbaUqXg

Fascinating, if that’s indeed what was being said.
Let’s remember that the Pats still have four games left in the regular season and more than a shot at the top seed in the AFC. If there are issues that need to be worked on, there’s still time to iron them out before the postseason.
