Brady expressed concern on his podcast earlier this week over a lack of effort, something he elaborated on Thursday. "What can we control? We can certainly control our attitude, our effort. I think everything has been below the line this year -- we're 4-5 ... I don't think there's any reason to be happy about anything we've done," Brady said. "Obviously, we're not playing to our standards -- we're not there from an effort standpoint, execution standpoint, emotional standpoint. We've got to figure it out -- this is a good place to do it." The hope is that the Bucs can go into the bye week and hit the reset button -- analyzing what has and hasn't worked for them. Those have been particularly productive for Brady throughout his career. He's 15-5 coming off bye weeks. International games have been particularly kind to him too. He's 3-0 in games played outside the United States.
