Never count this man out in crunchtime

Plus: Big moves from players and coaches across sports

Whatta week, amirite? Here's what's on today's slate:

  • Brady came up clutch šŸ˜±

  • Brazil headed to the quarterfinals šŸ‡§šŸ‡·

  • Verlander to the Mets āš¾ļø

  • Prime Time is packing up šŸˆ

Tom Brady proved me wrong and cashed the ML

Tom Brady is quite familiar with fourth-quarter comebacks.

He now has 44 fourth-quarter comebacks, breaking a tie with Peyton Manning for most in NFL history.

On Monday night versus New Orleans, the Bucs quarterback carried his team to a 17-16 victory after trailing by 13 points with just over 3 minutes left in the game.

After the Saints took a 16-3 lead in the fourth quarter you would think it was game overā€¦ just turn the game off. It was looking bad for the Bucs, with the offense unable to sustain drives and the defense just as poor.

At that point, Tampa Bay only had a 3.3% chance of winning. Tom Brady defied all odds. If thereā€™s a will, thereā€™s a way.

The GOAT threw the latest game-winning touchdown of his 23-year career. He hit Rachaad White for a 6-yard touchdown, and the extra point gave Tampa Bay the dub.

With the win, Brady now has 3,332 passing yards, 16 touchdown passes and three interceptions.

He may be 45, but he's still coming up clutch in some of the biggest moments.

Brazil is on fire!

They set the tone after scoring the first goal in just seven minutes into the game against South Korea.

With their 4-1 victory, theyā€™re now off to the quarterfinals. They just couldn't be stopped.

They are the second team in the last 40 years to score 4+ goals in the first half of a FIFA World Cup knockout match.

That just happens when you have one of Brazilā€™s all-time leading scorers on your team. Brazilā€™s great footballer, Pele, sits at the top with 77 total career goals, but Neymar follows with 76 and Ronaldo at 62.

Not only did Brazil execute on offense, but their assistant coach CĆ©sar Sampaio also credited the teamā€™s ball recovery.

Brazil definitely had something to dance about as they celebrated each goal in style with a lil choreography and their famous Pigeon dance.

MLB OFFSEASON IS HEATING UP šŸ”„

The internet reacts to Justin Verlander signing with the Mets

Justin Verlander to the Mets! 

  • On Monday, the 2022 World Series Champion signed a two-year $86 million contract with the Mets.

  • After the team lost Jacob deGrom to the Rangers, the Mets were quick to act on it by replacing him with the American League Cy Young Winner.

  • Now, the vet will pair up with fellow vet, Max Scherzerā€” who he now matches for highest average annual value in major league history.

  • Though the two may be ā€œold headsā€, the Mets can only hope the 39-year-old can produce just as well as he did in Houston.

  • During his three seasons as an Astro, he threw his third no-hitter, struck out his 3,000th batter, won an ERA title, and was a unanimous winner of his third Cy Young Award.

  • Not to mention, Houston won 11 of the 17 playoff games Verlander started.

  • The Tommy John injury clearly wasn't stopping him. Letā€™s see what else he got in the bag for the Mets.

Among other big player moves, Trea Turner is headed to the Phillies.

  • The former Dodgersā€™ shortstop was bound to leave the team. He wanted to make his way back to the east coast, as many speculated, where he was a lot more comfortable on that side of town.

  • $300 million is a massive deal, but Turner is all deserving of it after such an explosive season.

  • In 2022, he slashed .298/.343/.466 with a .809 OPS while hitting 21 homers and a career-high 100 RBIs.

  • Turner will be reunited with his former teammate Bryce Harper. The two can look forward to running back the World Series, only this time with goals to bring home the trophy.

With all these big moves going on, it looks like one guy in particular is good where heā€™s at. Aaron Judge agreed to return to the Yankees after signing a nine-year, $360 million deal.

  • After previously meeting with the Giants and the Padres, I know Giants fans gotta be hurt after that one. I mean, who wouldnā€™t want this slugger on their team?!

  • Coming off a 62-homer season, last month, he was named AL MVP for a season in which he hit .311 with 133 runs and 131 RBIs.

  • Earlier in the year, Judge told reporters that he wants to be a Yankee for life. With this contract locked in, heā€™ll definitely be in the Bronx for quite a while now.

Primeā€™s going to Colorado!

After three seasons, Deion Sanders left Jackson State University to take on his new job as head coach for the University of Colorado.

While some fans came for the former Super Bowl champ in questioning his commitment to JSU, Sanders simply stated that change is inevitable.

With the resume he has, Colorado fans are expecting a lot from the Hall of Famer.

He played 14 seasons across five NFL teams while racking up 270 solo tackles, 53 interceptions, and 94 passes defended.

Check this outā€” on Friday, Colorado Footballā€™s instagram had 58K followers and by Monday following the news, the account grew to over 133K followers.
