Jacoby Brissett quotes Tom Brady

The Browns came in as an underdog for the clash against the Buccaneers. With Deshaun Watson suspended, the Browns have relied on their backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett this season. And Brissett rose to the occasion in what is expected to be his last game for the team this season. The Browns won 23-17 in OT.

After the win, Brissett looked especially pumped. And why not, he had just beaten his old teammate and NFL legend Tom Brady. Speaking to the media after the game, Brissett expressed his excitement in the words of his former mentor.

“I mean this is no disrespect. But in the words of Tom Brady, that was f**kin’ awesome. That was f**kin’ awesome,” Brissett said.

Brissett shared the dressing room with Brady in New England when both of them were playing for the Patriots. Brady was the untouchable star of the team back then. He still is, albeit in Tampa Bay now. As for Brissett, he was a backup quarterback then. And he is still that now for the Browns. Watson will replace him in the starting lineup against the Houston Texans but nobody can take away this win from him.

Brissett filling the Deshaun Watson void

When the Browns signed Deshaun Watson, they thought they had nailed down the QB position. But then Watson was handed an 11-game suspension. And Baker Mayfield had already left. So, it was up to Jacoby Brissett to fill that void for the team. And he held the fort to the best of his abilities.

He might not feature again this season, but he surely has etched his name in the memory of numerous fans. It is now the responsibility of Watson to build on the win. Where will the Browns finish this season?
