Internet in splits after video shows tablet being quietly moved away from sullen Tom Brady

A user tweeted, 'Did TB pitch a fit tonight?! I didn’t watch cuz refs usually help him out a bit. Did he act like a baby?'

A new video of a man saving a tablet from Tom Brady has been trending and Twitter users called him "a true hero." The video comes after The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the New Orleans Saints on September 18 and Brady reportedly lost his cool and smashed two tablets while watching from the sidelines, The Guardian reported.

In the 20-10 triumph, in which he reportedly struggled to find a passing rhythm, Brady smashed a second tablet, according to a source who also confirmed it to ESPN. The quarterback had already apologized for smashing one tablet. The NFL has sent memos to all 32 of the league's clubs informing them that breaking tablets will result in a fine, according to Jay Glazer of Fox Sports, as reported by The Guardian.

"I’ve had a pretty bad record against that tablet, unfortunately," Brady joked during his appearance with Jim Gray on the radio earlier this week. "I think I forgot the password and I couldn’t log in, so those things can be frustrating. Unfortunately, the tablet just happens to get in the way, and obviously, that’s the reason things weren’t going great [against the Saints], so I had to take it out on the poor meaningless tablet," cited by The Guardian.

Brady also threw a tablet during Tampa Bay's defeat over New Orleans in Week 15 of the previous season. Despite the fact that the Buccaneers have won both of their games this season, Brady, who led the league in passing yards and touchdowns in 2021, has reportedly not played at his best. With two touchdown passes and one interception, he has a QBR rating of 38.9, which places him 24th out of 32 eligible players. 

Brady's personal life has allegedly also been a concern. Reportedly, Gisele Bundchen was Tom Brady's biggest supporter, but news of their alleged heated arguments and hiring of divorce lawyers was widely discussed on the Internet. According to reports, the former Victoria's Secret model was accused of wanting to split after it was revealed that she was upset that her husband, 45, had returned to football after announcing his retirement.

The 45-year-old quarterback declared his retirement on Tuesday, February 1, 2022, but circumstances have changed, and Bündchen was reportedly dissatisfied when he un-retired after 40 days. "There's been trouble in the marriage over his decision to un-retire. Gisele has always been the one with the kids," a source told Page Six. "They had agreed he would retire to focus on the family, then he changed his mind. They have a fiery relationship. Gisele is a bit hot-headed — she has that Brazilian heat!"

The internet was left in splits as the new video gained popularity. "A true hero! A guy saves tablet from Brady’s wrath!" said the user sharing the video in which a hand can be seen quietly pulling away the tablet from behind Brady. One user said, "Wouldnt brady get in trouble if he broke it." Another user said, "Did TB pitch a fit tonight?! I didn’t watch cuz refs usually help him out a bit. Did he act like a baby?" One user posted a meme and wrote, "Tom Brady to the next tablet he sees on the sidelines:" Another user wrote," Hahaha…..good one!" "Been a while since we’ve seen Tom Brady do THIS with a tablet," said one user. Another user reacted with a meme and wrote, "Tom Brady and the Bucs: lose again Every tablet within a 100 mile radius:"
