Tampa, Florida – Despite suffering some discomfort in his right shoulder and finger which forced him to miss Wednesday’s training, the quarterback Tom Brady He said he will play Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons as the Buccaneers attempt 2-2 to secure their first home win of the season.

“It feels great,” Brady said Thursday with a smile. “I’ll be there Sunday.”

He didn’t miss a single shot in that match, but seemed to be upset and at some point back up in the middle Plain Gebert The warm-up was on the sidelines.

But by this Thursday, the injury didn’t seem to bother him. During the training portion that was open to the media, Brady went through his usual throwing routine without any issues. Wednesday has traditionally been Brady’s day off so far this season, although those rest days were previously protective, and he trained on that day last week despite dealing with his right finger injury. Listed as full participant in hacker injury report.

Against The Chiefs, the Bucs looked more like attacking averaging 30 points per game this time last year, netting four touchdowns after just three offensive games during their first three regular season games this season. This was due in large part to Brady’s return to the playmakers. Brady has rarely had all the best receivers at his disposal this year in practice and in games.

“That’s important,” Brady said. “I think we’re trying to get everyone out there so we can build on certain things and I think when you have these guys there, obviously there are great players who are going to put in a lot of plays. So Mike is going to put in a lot of plays, Chris is going to put in plays. We just have to keep going. In that. I think 2-2 is not where we want to be in. We have to do a lot of things a lot better.

“The more you do things together and work things out and review the actors, practices, games, and head-to-head competition, the better you will be,” Brady said. “I’ve just played with a lot of guys over a long period of time. Here’s just my third year with Mike [Evans] and Chris [Godwin] In particular, there are other players – Cam [Brate]Leonard [Fournette]. There’s a lot to learn, you know, it’s a tough sport. There’s a lot of coordination that goes into, you know, attack, defense, special teams and getting everything right.”

Evans came back from a one match suspension and had two touchdowns in that match, Goodwin and Julio Jones Both were active after a second and third week absence with hamstring and knee injuries, marking only the second time this season that Brady has had all his weapons received, although Jones missed the second half after adjusting his knee. Goodwin’s back stiffened and at one point he was attended by coaching staff in the field.

Both Goodwin and Jones practiced on a limited basis on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Goodwin said his back is “fine,” but after eight months of recovering from a torn ACL/inferior muscle, he said it was a process of regaining full health and maintaining chemistry as a team.

“I think it’s tough when you’re trying to put together your offensive game plan when you don’t have everyone there,” said Goodwin. “Then you add on top of that, we’ve got a bunch of new faces, we’ve got new receivers, and a new offensive line. It’s tough. But…it’s a long season and I think it can be very easy for people to overreact at a time. early in the year.But I think the most important thing for us is to keep working on building all season–that’s what we’ve been doing for the last couple of years.you know,the sun isn’t always shining,rainbow,earlier in the year.we’re kind of getting better slowly and better And better. You can’t just build Chemistry in one game in one day or one game. It will take some time.

“It’s absent players, not only in practice, but only from games. We’ve been hacked. On top of that, we’ve got new guys. … You can’t synthesize alchemy. Like the only way you get it is you build it day in and day out. And that’s from By making mistakes…you know the good times and bad and understanding what Tom wants, what we love, what we’re looking for and how all the networks are intertwined at the same time. And it’s going to take time, just patience. I tell guys the same thing and we all understand that it’s going to take time .”

As far as this week goes by, Jones’s status is up in the air against the team he’s played for 10 seasons. Pratt, who suffered a concussion against the leader, is still on concussion protocol, which means Bucs may have to rely on the Apprentice Kid Oton Brate should not be erased. Wide receiver Cole Beasley, who signed with the team in Week 3, announced his decision to retire Wednesday, meaning there is another gap to be filled.

“It’s important for us to win a game at home against a team that plays good football, has a unique style and is a tough and strong team,” Brady said of the Falcons. “We have to play good football. We have to prepare well. 0-2 at home. That’s disgusting. You know, this is reality so there are no excuses. We didn’t get the job done, which is production work here.”
