Before Tom Brady ever became the quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, he did Bucs fans a huge favor by handing the rival Falcons one of the most humiliating losses in Super Bowl history, leading the Patriots back from a 28-3 deficit to win Super Bowl LI.
It’s considered the greatest comeback in sports history to this day, but Brady just witnessed another improbable one that could give 28-3 a run for its money.

Bucs fans will gladly take any opportunity to relive Atlanta’s historic meltdown, especially now that Brady is a part of Buccaneers history after delivering Tampa Bay a ring of their own..Â
To make matters even worse, the Argentina-Egypt game was played in Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of the Atlanta Falcons. They truly can’t escape 28-3, and Bucs fans are enjoying every second of it.
