Tecmo Bowl: Tom Brady to Kenbrell Thompkins (Video)
By Mike Dyce
The New England Patriots were losing to the New Orleans Saints. Drew Brees had just thrown a 34 yard touchdown pass, on 3rd and 20 no less, to wide receiver Kenny Stills to take the lead. It was an incredible drive and play to put the Saints ahead.
The Patriots and quarterback Tom Brady got the ball back with 3:29 left in the game. They completed one short pass than 2 incompletions to set up fourth and six at their own 24 yard line.
Logic said they should punt and try for a three and out since they had all there time outs. They failed to convert, turned the ball over on downs and the Saints took the field goal.
Brady got the ball back again and was intercepted on the first pass with 2:16 left in the game. The Pats’ defense held up and the Patriots got the ball back down 4 points with 1:13 left in the game.
That is when Tom Brady led an incredible drive that resulted in a 17-yard touchdown pass to Kenbrell Thompkins. It was incredible and a YouTuber recreated it as if it were played in Tecmo Bowl including the crazy calls from the radio announcers.
“Brady is back! That’s your quarterback! Who left the building? Unicorns! Show ponies! Where’s the beef?” New England radio analyst Scott Zolak yelled.
