Earl Thomas 'salty' about Tom Brady's path to the Super Bowl

After the Seattle Seahawks lost to the Atlanta Falcons Saturday, safety Earl Thomas tuned into the second playoff matchup between the New England Patriots and Houston Texans.

Thomas has been active on social media since breaking his leg in Week 13, and he shared some thoughts on Tom Brady.

"Tom Brady has the easiest route," he wrote in one tweet.

When someone tweeted at him a video of a Patriots touchdown against the Seahawks from Super Bowl XLIX, Thomas tweeted, "Did you watch the game this year I owned Tom Brady!!"

After his injury, Thomas said he was thinking about retiring, but he's since decided to rehab and return in 2017.

The Seahawks certainly missed Thomas down the stretch. In the final six games without him (playoffs included), opposing quarterbacks completed 63.5 percent of their passes, averaged 8.17 YPA and threw eight touchdowns without an interception against Seattle.
