Tom Brady went for the closest thing he could do for a Lambeau Leap after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the Green Bay Packers 31-26 and reach the Super Bowl on Sunday.

Brady threw for 280 yards, three touchdowns, and three interceptions in the victory. He secured his 10th Super Bowl appearance with the win.
Notably, Brady also tied future Hall-of-Fame quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees for NFC Championships per Barstool Sports. The Bucs ironically eliminated Bree’s New Orleans Saints and Rodgers’ Packers in the process.

His early precision got the Bucs going downfield right away following the opening kickoff, giving his team a 7-0 edge on a touchdown pass to wide receiver Mike Evans. The Bucs never trailed and built a 21-10 lead on a deep throw by Brady for a touchdown to wide receiver Scotty Miller. Brady had Twitter blowing up at halftime per ESPN Sports Center.

Things went rough for Brady for a time in the second half, throwing three interceptions in seven passes as the Packers tried to rally from a 28-10 hole. He overcame the slump in leading the Bucs to a game-sealing field goal and another drive to close out the game.
