Chapter 391 A Group of Hyenas
In this room, reporters were surrounding Li Wei from three levels inside and three outside.
In that box, the media crowded Brady's press conference room.
"Tom, do you think you lost this game to Levi?"
The opening question was a critical blow. Before Brady had completely calmed down, his blood vessels swelled again, and his smile was almost unbearable.
"Yes, we lost the game, and Levi did a great job; but we lost to the Kansas Chiefs led by Andy Reid, and the better team won the game."
Word for word, Brady almost said this through clenched teeth.
Reporter, very good——
"Brady: I lost the game, Levi was really good."
The title was born.
But this was not enough, far from it, and reporters continued to pursue and block him.
"However, the biggest contributor to the Kansas City Chiefs' Hail Mary was Levi. He first helped the team get into Smith's passing range by running the ball on the ground, and then beat McCoutry and the Chung family to complete the one-handed catch. He almost single-handedly Turned the game around.”
Before he finished speaking, Brady, who was getting increasingly angry, couldn't help but interrupt.
"We had a chance to end the game in our own hands, but our offensive team's performance in the final moments clearly did not meet expectations."
"Tom, are you blaming the offensive line for the loss?"
Brady:…
These reporters are hyenas, and the smell of blood can drive them crazy.
"I think the offensive line really needs to be reviewed, and our receiving team also needs to be reviewed. Why was it that the long pass was not caught when it was already in place?"
Gronkowski:? ? ? Brother, do you want to tell me my name directly?
The reporter asked, "Do you think you lost not to Levi, but to yourself?"
Brady was so angry that he stared at the reporter fiercely, almost vomiting blood on the spot. It took him a lot of effort to control his urge to throw away his sleeves and leave the game to avoid being ruined later in the game.
Although Brady controlled himself and did not lose control in the end, after a press conference, even if he was not crazy, he was not far away——
The crisis can be felt throughout the New England Patriots' locker room:
Fortunately, the season is coming to an end, and you will be liberated if you survive tonight.
Levi. Levi. Still Levi.
Although the emergence of Levi has been the focus of hot topics throughout the season, the degree of media frenzy this time is far beyond imagination.
Behind the series of records of the Kansas Chiefs and behind the super comeback victory over the New England Patriots, Levi once again became the focus——
"That catch" made a strong appearance. Even if you have no interest in football, you can't miss this event on the timeline of social networks.

incredible!
Even if I saw the statistics with my own eyes soaring to the real-time hot search list in a second, I still couldn’t believe my eyes. The Super Bowl effect seems to have arrived early.
Gillette Stadium, home team locker room.
Gronkowski watched Brady enter the shower room with a smile on his face, turned around, his smile faded, and he clapped his hands continuously to attract attention.
"Guys, guys!"
"For the next hour, remember our plan, 'Prevent Tom from seeing any cell phone activity,' we can't let him see the media coverage."
"Brandon, are you crazy? Hide your phone in the locker now. Stop it. You shouldn't be using your phone either. Stop abusing yourself."
Gronkowski's face was full of tension, and Van Noy was also full of anger. The defense in the second half was repeatedly frustrated. He was so frustrated that he was about to vent his anger. At this time, he didn't even look at Gronkowski and complained back.
"Can you stop it? The entire social network is full of them." Gronkowski didn't have time to get angry with Van Noy, "I just drained all the battery on Tom's phone..."
Brush brush brush.
All eyes were turned over.
Gronkowski shook his head, "Don't ask, I just played a big game and died a few times. The Apple battery really can't hold up at all."
Everyone understood.
"So, take care of your mobile phones and take care of your chargers. He won't be able to see it. If he can't see it, our vacation will come sooner."
"As long as we see him again after he returns, tonight will be considered a smooth one. Giselle will be responsible for comforting him for the rest."
"But if it's exposed here, you know..."
Gronkowski flattened his right hand and made a gesture across his throat, then tilted his head and stuck out his tongue. One movement was enough.
Everyone nodded one after another, each of them showing panic expressions of lingering fear.
Then--
"Coming, coming..."
Amidst the rustling sounds, Brady appeared.
After bathing, Brady still couldn't control his irritability and anger. His expression of "keep away from strangers" made everyone else around him retreat, just like a Tyrannosaurus rex patrolling its territory, and they all held their breath.
Brady didn't notice the change in the atmosphere in the locker room. He was completely immersed in his own thoughts. He went straight to the locker and took out his cell phone.
In the past, after a game, you often had to wait an entire night, the next day or even the third day before you could read the newspaper and see the news.
Now, when you turn on your mobile phone, you can immediately see the reaction of the media around the world. You don't even need to go out to buy newspapers, everything is on your mobile phone.
Wait, the phone is out of battery?
Brady flipped left and right, but he couldn't open his phone.
Without looking up, "Rob, where's your phone?"
Gronkowski deliberately turned his back to Brady, "Wait, let me look for it."
After rummaging around, he asked, "Hey, there's no battery? What, where's your cell phone?"
Gronkowski secretly clenched his fists: Very good, very natural. He feels that after retiring, he can challenge Hollywood like Dwayne Johnson.
Brady sighed, "My phone is out of battery."
Turning around, Brady looked to the other side, "Jimmy?"
It took me a moment to realize that the team's backup quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo was traded to the San Francisco 49ers at the end of October in exchange for a second-round pick next season. The current backup quarterback is The league's wandering veteran Brian Hoyer.
"Brian, isn't your cell phone out of battery?"
Gronkowski's heart suddenly contracted: Oops!
This Hoyer joined halfway. He doesn't know how terrible Brady is and is unfamiliar with them. What if Hoyer doesn't cooperate?
Seeing that the plan was about to fail, Hoyer checked his cell phone with a natural look on his face, "Yes, the battery is also out."
While thinking about it, he muttered a guess, "It's probably because it's too cold in Fox Castle tonight and all the iPhones have automatically shut down."
Escaped!
Gronkowski let out a long breath, "Yes, the battery of this mobile phone is really bad. It automatically shuts down when the temperature drops. Haha, hahaha."
Gronkowski laughed dryly and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Seeing that Brady did not continue to question the next person, everyone else in the locker room breathed a sigh of relief. They did not want to have extra training before the vacation.
Unexpectedly, the locker room assistant responsible for collecting towels and jerseys appeared, pushing a blue bucket in and scrolling through his mobile phone.
Gronkowski: ...Fuck!
Brady saw it at a glance, "Scott, are you scrolling on Twitter? Show me."
