Longtime sideline reporter Erin Andrews has seen it all on a football field. One player continues to amaze her though.

Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers made life look easy in a 31-15 win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. The final score didn’t really accurately reflect the blowout it was.

Brady shredded the Philadelphia defense for 279 yards and two touchdowns through the air. The Buccaneers led the Eagles 31-0 entering the fourth quarter as Philly went on to score a couple garbage-time touchdowns.

Andrews spoke with Brady following the Buccaneers’ playoff victory.

Andrews: “Well congratulations today throwing for two touchdowns and hitting nine guys. I don’t have to tell ya, you’re without 50 percent of your offense. So with that said, what did you like about the way your group operated?”

Brady: “A lot of guys stepped up. We’re obviously down quite a few guys. Lost Tristan [Wirfs] early so that was something we had to adjust to. I thought we lost Ryan [Jensen] for the whole thing. I was checking him out because the center’s pretty important. He’s a tough guy and he toughed it out. A lot of guys toughed it out today. In the end no one really cares. You gotta win and then you gotta move on. I’m happy for our team and we’ll figure out who we play here shortly and then get on them.”

Andrews: “Essentially this game was over in the third quarter. And as you know these games are gonna get tougher and tougher as you move on. What would like them to improve on moving on here?”

Brady: “We did some good things. I think we’re gonna have to keep doing what we were doing today. Everybody’s gotta touch it. Make some explosive plays. Did a good job possessing it. Defense played great. So it was a great team win. Special teams played awesome. One of the best games we had on special teams all year.”

Andrews: “My last one for you: with the game kind of in hand here, I know they scored the touchdown late, fans are a little worried, how do you balance coming back in and trying to avoid any sort of injury? Guys were sweating over here for you.”

Brady: “I understand that. They’ve been great all year so it’s nice to have them back. Obviously it was a great turnout and we’re gonna need it next week too. Whoever we play is gonna be a great opponent so we need to play great football.”

Next week Erin Andrews will be on the sideline for Saturday’s NFC Playoff battle between the San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers.

Tom Brady, meanwhile, will clash against the winner of Monday night’s Cardinals-Rams game. The Divisional Round matchup will take place this Sunday on NBC.
