Tom Brady powered the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to an epic overtime win over the Buffalo Bills in Week 14, but head coach Bruce Arians is not happy with everything his QB did.

In fact, there is one specific play he would rather Brady not do again: rush with the ball and sacrifice his body. The Buccaneers QB put on the wheels late in the opening quarter for a three-yard gain before he was tackled by Taron Johnson.

While it was undoubtedly a good play by Tom Brady, Bruce Arians wants his star quarterback to take care of his body more. After all, he is no longer the 20-year-old, strong and healthy QB he once was. He is now 44 years old and the priority is to keep him healthy.

“That's enough of that shit. Get your ass on the ground,” Arians said of Brady's play, per Evan Winter of Sports Illustrated.

Bruce Arians' concern is definitely understandable. Not to mention that at this point of the season, they cannot afford getting Brady injured. They are still in contention for the top spot in the NFC, and if they want to stay within striking distance of the Arizona Cardinals, they need their star QB.

Brady recorded his 700th passing touchdown in the game, so there is still a big reason for Arians and the Buccaneers to celebrate. Nonetheless, here's to hoping he won't ignore his coach's qualms.
