Social media reacted to Tom’s shake off:

Byron Leftwich called a play, Tom Brady is seen screaming “no, no, NO!” – leans in and calls his own play. Runs the whole drive solo, gets the W. He is the Offensive Coordinator!

I wanna know what Byron Leftwich called for that Tom Brady was like hell no and changed the play. They had some words on the sideline after.
