Bruce Arians Calls Out Tom Brady for Not Targeting an ‘Open’ Mike Evans

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians has a strong message to players when it comes to taking the COVID-19 vaccine

The Saints crushed the Tampa Bay Buccaneers so badly that everyone is pointing fingers.  So what happened? According to Tampa Bay coach Bruce Arians, it was every phase of the game.

“It was shocking,” Buccaneers coach Bruce Arians told reporters after the 38-3 loss. “To know just watch[ing] us practice, the way we practiced all week, the confidence we had coming in. . . . I give New Orleans credit. They kicked our ass in every phase. . . . Everything. Offense, defense, special teams.”

The Buccaneers generally aren’t happy with the ass-kicking they absorbed.

“Everybody’s pissed off,” Arians said. “But too late now, we’ve got to get ready for Carolina. . . . [The loss] can’t carry over to Wednesday. It has to be gone by Monday, and hit the practice field and get ready for Carolina.”

He also took a shot at Tom Brady:  Buccaneers wideout Mike Evans finished the game with four receptions for 64 yards. But Arians suggested he should have had the ball in his hands more often:

“He didn’t get targeted,” Arians said, via James Palmer of NFL Network. “That’s all. Mike was open.”

Evans’ six targets were tied for the most of any Buccaneers player on Sunday. However, Arians appears to be suggesting Brady needed to do a better job of getting him the ball. Does Arians know Tom doesn’t like that kind of talk? Tom Brady doesn’t need Arians trying to motivate him at this stage in his career.

Interesting decision by the coach.
