Tom Brady explains 11-day absence...

Tom Brady made a succinct, strong statement in his brief preseason debut.

Update, he's not rusty at all.

Five days after ending a planned, 11-day training camp break, Brady went 6 of 8 for 44 yards in the no-huddle offense and led the Buccaneers to a field goal on his first and only drive before watching the Indianapolis Colts' backups rally for a 27-10 victory on Saturday night.

«I've played a lot of football in my day � a lot of practices, a lot of games, and a lot of seasons,» Brady said. «I'm ready to go.»

Check out his very direct response to what he was up to in the past 11 days.
