Brady, Buccaneers look to end skid against SB champion Rams

Associated Press  

TAMPA, Fla. — When Tom Brady ended his brief retirement, citing “unfinished business” as motivation for continuing his record-breaking football career, losing to the Los Angeles Rams in last season’s playoffs was still fresh on the Tampa Bay quarterback’s mind. We’ve got to make the plays that are winning plays.” ANOTHER MILESTONE Brady, the NFL’s career passing leader, enters Sunday needing 164 yards to reach 100,000, including the postseason. “They’re great achievements,” he added on the milestone “But as much as people want to say, ‘Oh, this is what Tom Brady did,’ in my mind, this is what myself and all these other people that have contributed to my life have done as well.” KUPP ON THE CUSP Rams All-Pro receiver Cooper Kupp needs just three receptions to reach 500 for his career. Last season’s NFL leader in receptions, yards receiving and TD catches will be only the fourth wideout to make 500 catches in a career with the Rams, joining Isaac Bruce, Torry Holt and Henry Ellard.
