Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will face Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots on Sunday night, and it’s considered one of the most anticipated games in NFL history. And in order to get fans ready for the matchup, NBC released a promo that featured the Adele song “Hello.”
While NBC is looking to get fans emotional before the game, Brady’s focus is on winning and nothing else. “I’m not going to necessarily reminisce,” Brady said, on the podcast Let’s Go! this week.”I don’t think this is the moment for that. I’ll have plenty of opportunities to reminisce about my football career — none of it, none of which I really care to do right now because I’m so much in the moment. I’m not going to be thinking about 20 years of history. I’m going to be thinking about one night of football, a Sunday night game coming off a really tough loss.”

Is it Real?
