Even the best NFL players need a little motivation, and for Tom Brady, that involves some self-deprecation.

The New England Patriots quarterback told NFL Media's Andrea Kremer how he uses self-talk to get himself ready for the season.

Brady says things such as, "God, Tom, you're not very good," and "You have to work harder at this; what are you doing, that was a bad play," in order to push himself through every game.

"I think that's a lot of motivation for me is to always feel like I have to prove it to myself first," Brady told Kremer.
