Tom Brady Sends Shockwaves Across the League After Calling the Colts the Best Team in Football – Patriots Fans Outraged Amid Rumors Brady Wants to Coach in Indianapolis – His Response to the Coaching Question Leaves Everyone Stunned
October 31, 2025

Foxborough, Massachusetts – The NFL world erupted this week after Tom Brady, widely regarded as the greatest player in league history, praised the Indianapolis Colts as “the best team in the NFL right now.” The remark immediately sent social media into chaos — and Patriots fans into outrage — especially after rumors began circulating that Brady “might be considering joining the Colts as a coach.”

Brady made the comments during his Let’s Go! podcast with Jim Gray and Larry Fitzgerald, when asked which team had impressed him the most this season. With his signature calm and measured tone, Brady gave an answer that no one expected:
“The Colts are doing what every team dreams of — they’re united, disciplined, and they win together. Daniel Jones is playing outstanding football, Steichen is coaching brilliantly, and that entire group deserves to be called the best team in the NFL right now.”

Within minutes, the quote went viral. Hashtag #BradyToColts trended across X (formerly Twitter) as Patriots fans voiced their anger. One top comment read: “He’s praising the one team he used to destroy — what’s happening to our GOAT?”

Sports outlets immediately jumped on the story, with analysts speculating that Brady might be “eyeing a potential advisory or coaching role” with the Colts — the same franchise that stood as his fiercest rival throughout his two-decade dynasty in New England. Some even suggested that “a Brady-Steichen collaboration isn’t impossible.”

But Brady quickly shut down the growing speculation. When directly asked whether he’d ever consider coaching for the Colts, he smiled and replied:
“I respect what they’re doing, I really do. But coaching the Colts? Never. I’ve got too many memories competing against them. I still hate them — in the best, most competitive way — but I can admit they’re really good.”

"Could the AFC run through Indy this year? I feel sick just saying that."

His words left fans both relieved and amused — the perfect mix of honesty and classic Brady charm.

Skip Bayless (FOX Sports) summed it up perfectly: “Only Tom Brady could praise the Colts and declare he’d never work for them in the same breath.”
Meanwhile, Jeff Darlington (ESPN) added: “Brady speaks the truth — if he says the Colts are the best team in football, you can take that to the bank.”

Brady may never wear the horseshoe logo, but hearing the GOAT himself admit that Indianapolis is the best team in the NFL right now is enough to make Colts Nation beam with pride.

And back in Foxborough, Patriots fans can only sigh — the balance of power has shifted, and for now, all roads lead through Indianapolis.
