Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady doesn't have any regrets on his viral moment in Week 15 when he hurled a tablet in frustration.
To recall, Brady and the Buccaneers were shutout by the New Orleans Saints in their highly physical showdown on Sunday. It was just the third time in Tom's career that he has been held scoreless, and to make matters worse, he was sacked four times in the contest–something he hasn't felt in 19 years prior to the contest.
With that said, it's not surprising that the frustration got the better of him, so much so that he threw a tablet and destroyed it

In the latest episode of his Let's Go! podcast, the Buccaneers QB discussed the moment and shared huis thoughts during the said viral moment.
“Injuries are a totally separate emotion, obviously. Yeah, I was pretty pissed. I broke a tablet. I threw it. I didn’t want to throw an interception with that tablet so I threw it and made sure it hit the ground. It was out of use. There was no chance of that one being used after I got a hold of that tablet,” Brady said, per TampaBay.com.
It's really hard to blame Tom Brady for his action. The Buccaneers needed the win to stay in the race for the top spot in the NFC. but they wasted their chance and now find themselves in a tough spot.
The good thing is Brady made sure no one would get hit when he threw the tablet–even though his reason is not that noble.
