So, at halftime in his first NFL game and first competitive football game in nearly two years, and not having converted a single third down and down 11 points, 22 year-old McCarthy tells 32 year-old Javon Hargrave he’s got this. Then, after throwing a pick-six in the third quarter, he talks to his offensive lineman on the sideline, telling them he thinks things are about to pop. And then in the huddle, when things haven’t been going well all night, he asks his teammates, “is there anyplace else you’d rather be?” And then he leads his teammates to a big fourth quarter comeback win. Who does that? @tombrady

no i’m gonna pay for you this time, you’re gonna pay for me next time, and it’s all gonna come out in the aggregate of our long and storied friendship
