Tom Brady's first comments with the Bucs make it clear: He's on to Tampa Bay

To the surprise of no one, Tom Brady wasn’t going to spend a lot of time during his introductory teleconference with Tampa Bay discussing how he left New England.

“I don’t want to talk about the past because that is not relevant to what’s important to my future,” Brady said on Tuesday.

It’s the free agent version of “We’re on to Cincinnati.”

Bill Belichick may no longer be Brady’s boss, but his influence will carry on.

Brady did reveal a few details, unwittingly or not. He said the decision to leave New England after two decades and six Super Bowl titles was made in full as he drove over to team owner Robert Kraft’s house on the evening of March 16.
