TB12 #TB12
When Tom Brady announced his retirement last offseason, there was much talk that the last game in his glorious career had been in the Divisional Round when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were defeated 30-27 by the eventual Super Bowl champions, the Los Angeles Rams, justly taking the championship away from TB12’s team.

However, 40 days after that announcement that shook the NFL world, Brady took a step back and regretted saying he would be back for his 23rd season as a pro, which caused, according to reports, the anger of his then wife Gisele Bündchen that eventually would have been the cause of the divorce that became official last Friday.
It’s been about 10 months since the seven-time Super Bowl champion’s last game against the current owners of the Vince Lombardi Trophy and this Sunday, as a divorced man, he will face the Rams again, in very different situations for everyone.

For the second time in his career, Brady comes into a game with three consecutive losing streaks and it was in his second season as a starter just after he was crowned NFL champion for the first time, against the Rams, then in St. Louis.
If that wasn’t enough, Brady’s relationship with the Rams doesn’t end there, as both the first and the last Super Bowl that TB12 won with the New England Patriots were against the Rams, in the LIII edition in the 2018 season, it took a year after that triumph for the legendary quarterback’s marriage with head coach Bill Belichick to come to an end.
