Tom Brady Struggling With Deep Ball Of Late
4 years agoTampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady is 0-for-19 on deep passes 20-plus air yards down the field in his last four games with a 0.0 passer rating. From Weeks 1-7 on deep passes, Brady was 14-for-39 (35.9 completion percentage) with two touchdowns and no interceptions for a passer rating of 101.2. The future Hall of Famer missed on his final three deep attempts in Week 7, so he's missed on his last 22 deep attempts, which is the longest streak by any QB since 2017. Going back to Week 5, Brady is 3-for-36 on deep passes. His last four games were against the Giants, Saints, Panthers and Rams -- all teams that have been pretty solid against QBs in 2020. The Chiefs, Brady's Week 12 opponent, have also been decent against signal-callers, but they looked bad against Las Vegas on Sunday night. Brady should remain in the low-end QB1 conversation this week.
