Tom Brady is motivated by his doubters and made that clear this week.
Brady posted a photo on his Instagram Story Thursday that showed him seemingly having thrown a football 61 mph. His caption said “He’s gonna fall off a cliff.”

The post seemed to be a jab at Max Kellerman, who said on ESPN’s “First Take” in 2016 that Brady was “going to fall off a cliff” and “be a bum in short order.”

Since Kellerman’s proclamation, Brady has gone on to play in three Super Bowls, winning two of them. So much for Kellerman’s prediction.
As Brady gets older, he finds more and more ways to motivate himself and seems to feed off his detractors.
