Plus, Tom Brady’s impact on the Buccaneers and more.
Week 4 is rolling toward Monday. And we’re rolling with The MMQB Takeaways from an entertaining NFL Sunday. As we’ve been doing all season, we’ll publish the takeaways Sunday and update them live through Monday morning. So come back again if not all 10 are here yet …The Indianapolis Colts’ quarterback is honest to a fault.
The funny thing is this guy with the great approach wasn’t quite sure which one to take to the job Sunday. Richardson first got nicked up in the game’s 10th minute on a collision with Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick. He left for two plays, during which Flacco got off his first throw of the season, on an underneath angle route to Jonathan Taylor on a four-verts call.
“And then a couple plays later, I’m hitting J.D. for a little touchdown, just putting it on his chest. And it doesn’t get much easier than that one.” “I’m not 23 anymore,” he says. “It’s not just me and my wife. I have five kids. I have more people that I get to enjoy it with. That’s one thing that makes it different. I was out of the league, not being there and realizing that you want to be there. It is a good reminder. No matter what your job is, it is a job. I think at times, for NFL players, you do view this as a job, and every now and then you need to remind yourself that this isn’t a normal job. This is the best job in the world.
It was clear Sunday that wasn’t going to happen. The Bucs jumped out to a 24–0 lead before the Eagles registered a single first down. Tampa scored touchdowns on drives of 10 plays and 79 yards, and five plays and 80 yards. They scored another off a Philly muffed punt, then went on a 12-play, 77-yard drive to kick a field goal, controlling the game in just about every way possible.
“All we ask is for Baker to be Baker,” David says. “Be the great football player that he is, be the great teammate that he is, and everything will take care of itself. I never try to ask him to be more than what he is. Tom is Tom, but Baker is Baker.”But, again, there’s no denying what Brady left behind. David reminded Brady of it when he saw the seven-time champ’s smiling face looking at him coming down the tunnel Sunday morning.
In Week 2’s mess against New Orleans, it was a fundamentals issue, with guys misaligned and not playing their gaps properly. In Week 3, per the coaches, a first-half implosion against the Baltimore Ravens was more about guys flat-out leaving their responsibilities to make plays.
