Speaking on Jim Gray's Let's Go podcast , Tom Brady addressed the Patriots versus Seahawks matchup directly. Brady explained that his focus is on the quality of the contest rather than the result.
"I don't have a dog in the fight in this one. May the best team win. I just wanna see good football. I wanna see good plays, good throws, good strategy, good decisions."
Given how long Tom Brady was with the New England Patriots and how revered he is by the fans and the organization, his unwillingness to back his former team raised some eyebrows.

"This is a new chapter in New England, and I'm glad everyone's embraced the Mike Vrabel regime, all the amazing players that have worked so hard to get their club to this position."
"We did it for 20 years. There was a little bit of a hiatus in there, but the Patriots are back and it's a very exciting time for everyone in New England."
