Bailey Zappe couldn't his excitement after the New England Patriots beat the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday Night Football.
Three first-half touchdowns provided the Patriots with a strong lead and they were able to hold onto it throughout the remainder of the game.
So when Zappe walked into the locker room, he had a big smile on his face and walked right over to offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien.
The hug he gave O'Brien said it all.
He then looked towards head coach Bill Belichick. First he gave him a big thumbs up and then walked over to him. He shook his hand, calling him sir and offering his congratulations on the win.
The difference between the two greetings said it all, and the video has been shared by many, now going viral.
While O'Brien, Zappe, and the offense struggled in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, they were able to get things moving. And with that, they got into the end zone three times.
When the clock finally winded down, the first person Zappe went over to was O'Brien. And it's clear the two have a special bond.
As for Belichick, he is known as a more serious coach. So Zappe's reaction goes along perfectly with that.
