Bruce Arians Reported Beef With Tom Brady, Bryon Leftwich Surfaces

Did Tom Brady retire due to a soured relationship with Bruce Arians?

Tom Brady’s two year stint in Tampa Bay was one of the more successful in recent history. He and Bruce Arians won a lot of games in only two season working together. Brady was still playing at an exceptionally high level in his 21st NFL season. Of course as we all know now, he couldn’t lead the Bucs to their second consecutive Super Bowl.

Tom truly retired at the top of his game. Now a report has surfaced pointing to a broken relationship with Bruce Arians.

Brady and Bucs Offensive Coordinator Bryon Leftwich had some issues with Arians. Specifically when Arians was recovering from an Achilles tear, Brady and Leftwich would work on the game plan all week.

Arians would then take a red pen to all their work, and do things his way.

“Apparently, while Arians was rehabbing the achilles in the early mornings, offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich and Brady would work on the week’s game plan. Arians would later come in and take the red pen to work they’d done. The QB and OC felt undermined, there was tension.”

I’ll say it again. Winning a Super Bowl with Bruce Arians as his HC is Tom Brady’s greatest achievement. https://t.co/Hsv1kQp8G5

Bruce Arians always been the guy that feels like he needs to be steering the ship. He’s the Head Coach, and of course has the final say.

If this report has any truth to it, maybe Tom would consider coming out of retirement to play for another team.

The minute you start putting your ego over winning things always go south.

Sounds like Ownership made him bend over for Brady, he changed the offense for Brady, brought in Gronk, also brought in AB against his wishes.

Tom has earned the right to do what is necessary to win.
