Tom Brady on Colts game: "It"s no different this week than it was last week"


Tom Brady The G.O.A.T.

Tom Brady has plenty of motivation for the upcoming Colts game on Sunday Night Football in Indianapolis.

The last time the teams met in the AFC title game, the Colts turned the Patriots in for an alleged use of deflated footballs that led to a series of sanctions against the team, including a four-game suspension of the Pats quarterback that was eventually wiped out on appeal.

You remember Deflategate, right?

Brady, though, did not budge when asked today on WEEI"s Dennis & Callahan radio show if any of that had to do with his preparation for the next game.

The way to do that is to go score as many points as possible. And that takes a lot of execution, that takes a lot of communication with your teammates in practice," Brady said. "Thats what Im focused on. Thats what Im focused on every week. I think it would be a disservice to Mr. Kraft and Jonathan and our organization if I didnt do that every week. I think Ive tried to be very consistent over the course of my career on my attention to detail, my levelheadedness, my poise. I think thats been a real positive for me.

"Now that were playing the Colts, for example, its not like, All right, well, lets go change now. Look, weve got a good thing going for a long time. And it has to do with all things that are football-related. And things that are about kind of our poise and our discipline, our execution. Thats what wins football games. Not what you say or what your talk is or the predictions you make. Like I said, those things dont really matter in the end."

Brady, who noted that he is feeling fine despite a heavy pass rush that resulted in five sacks on Sunday, maintained that the team will go about its business as usual.

Were going to do what we do every week," he said. "Were going to prepare as hard as we can, like we always do, and were going to go down and try to win a game. Were going to try to score every time we touch the ball, just like every other time in every other game. Its no different this week than it was last week or the week before. The better our execution is, the more points well score. Im sure theyre going to be geared up. This is a big game for them, too. Its Sunday Night Football. Theres going to be a high level of energy and emotion. Were going to go out there and were going to try to play our very best. And thats what its going to take.
